Vikinzi

Vikinzi

Tony Allan

This book is a richly illustrated introduction to an exceptionally interesting people, known for their belligerence and conquering tendencies, but at the same time capable of enchanting craftsmanship and a mythological view of the world.

The author describes the origin of the Vikings from the countries of northern Europe – Norway, Denmark and Sweden – and explains how poverty, the desire for wealth and the need for new lands led them to embark on sea voyages. They are known for their long ships, which they used to sail the seas and rivers and attack cities, monasteries and trading centers throughout Europe. The book presents the Vikings not only as warriors but also as traders, explorers and settlers. Their journeys to Iceland, Greenland and even North America are described, long before Christopher Columbus. The author also explains their trade connections with Europe and the East.
