Vikings

YVMQGUIE

Describes how people in southern France lived both seventeen thousand and seven thousand years ago, and compares the ways each group acquired food, shelter, and clothing

This book does an amazingly thorough job of explaining Viking culture, lifestyle, traditions, religions, craft and economy. It does so through charming but ufussy illustrations. The tone of the 'blurbs' is humorous, and fun to read. This book goes beyond the myth of the Vikings into the real culture of a fascinating people. I am married to a Viking named Thor, myself, so I like to look at these pages and imagine him there.
