Описание: A riveting account of the fearsome Scandinavian warriors who terrorized Europe for three centuriesFollowing the success of his The Gladiator and The Knight, historian Alan Baker now turns to the Vikings, the seafaring raiders who murdered and plundered their way across Europe and beyond from the ninth to eleventh centuries, eventually getting as far as Newfoundland in the west and Baghdad in the east. Organized in thematic chapters, The Viking brings these formidable warriors to life, describing their pagan culture and traditions, their ships and seafaring prowess, their great kings and chieftains, and their discovery of North America. Filled with fascinating facts and gripping tales of battle, it's a must for anyone intrigued by berserkers, battle axes, and long ships. Alan Baker (UK) is a historian and the author of The Knight (0-471-25135-6) and The Gladiator.
