From a distinguished archaeologist, the definitive history of the Vikings-from arts and culture to politics and cosmology.
"A thrilling read." -Wall Street Journal
The Viking Age saw an unprecedented expansion of the Scandinavian peoples into the world. As traders and raiders, explorers and colonists, they ranged from eastern North America to the Asian steppe. But for centuries, the Vikings have been seen through the eyes of others, distorted to suit the tastes of medieval writers, Victorian imperialists, Nazis, and more.
Based on the latest archaeological and textual evidence,Children of Ash and Elmtells the story of the Vikings on their own terms: their politics, their cosmology and religion, their material world. Known today for a stereotype of maritime violence, the Vikings exported new ideas, technologies, and beliefs to the lands and peoples they encountered. From Eirík Bloodaxe, who fought his way to a kingdom, to Gudríd Thorbjarnardóttir, the most traveled woman in the world,Children of Ash and Elmis a remarkable history of the Vikings and their time.
