A History of the Vikings

A HUGE thank you this week to David from A Wargaming Odyssey, who sent me this great book (though a slightly earlier edition) - yes mate it has arrived and just a few days ahead of my Birthday too, so its a wonderful start to the celebrations!

As I understand it, this is one of the seminal works of Viking culture, history and campaigns throughout Europe, with many a saga, map and illustration within - can't wait to get stuck into it!

  1. Hi Paul,

    No problem old chap - more than happy to stoke the inspirational fires - especially around birthdays!

    Part two will be on its way in the next few days and if you think that book is good.....;-)

    All the best,
