A History of the Vikings
Oxford & New York: Oxford University Press, 1984. Hardcover. 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall. Near Fine / Near Fine. Item #012443
Revised edition. Full black paper boards. xviii, 504 pp. [24] pp. B&W illustrations + B&W illustration text. Some light edge wear to dust jacket, one short tear to foot of front cover. First published in 1968, this book quickly established itself as a classic. Authoritative, but compulsively readable as the exciting adventure story that it is, it traces the development of the northern peoples and kingdoms from their half-glimpsed origins and legendary pre-history to the triumphs of Canute and the defeat and death of Harald Hardradi at Stamford Bridge in 1066.
