Far from being just 'wild, barbaric, axe-wielding pirates,' the Vikings created complex social institutions, oversaw the coming of Christianity to Scandinavia and made a major impact on European history through trade, travel and far-flung settlement and colonization. Now thoroughly updated and with a new foreword, this encyclopedic study brings together the latest research on Viking art, burial customs, fortresses, jewelry, kingship, religious conversions, and family life. The result is a rich and compelling picture of an extraordinary civilization.
