Opis

A thousand years ago, stoic Norsemen built resilient ocean-going longboats from wood and iron. They used these robust vessels to conquer the Arctic Ocean, discovering North America centuries before the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria sailed from Lisbon. We have no intact, complete record of their journeys, but history has preserved a patchwork of sagas that describe many wonders of the age. These are tales of both victory and vanquish, success and failure, and, though they on occasion echo the violent fortunes of many lost Viking explorers, we will never know what became of those who sailed away and were never seen again. A vast, hostile ocean of ice and storm. A small longboat built from wood and iron. A handful of stoic Norse adventurers. All bound for the horizons of history, inevitably destined to find their eternal home among sagas of the never seen.
