A really interesting book for anyone who enjoys Celtic culture, history, or mythology. The introduction was a nice read, and the "encyclopaedia" part had nice, concise entries.

I liked this book. It had an interesting argument for the existence of King Arthur that wasn't in your face. Love the Arthurian legend.

An excellent book fits my needs: aimed at laymen, easy reading, organized, well-illustrated, covers all aspects of the society as well as the history, with some of the latest finds referenced which helps sell the authenticity. I'm half-Danish and visited Copenhagen for a month many years ago. Mention of longships always attract me, along with the Vikings. Castleden comes as close as anyone in helping me understand how Vikings could deal with the English and French and others as both pirates and traders. Includes a chapter consisting of a Who's Who of the Viking Age. Index. Highly rtecommended.… (altro)
