There have been many books about the Vikings, but few that see them
from their own point of view. Most accounts rely heavily on the
records of prejudiced observers (who saw the Vikings only as savage
raiders) or the archaeological record, which tells us much about
their material culture but little about their values. This classic
book reveals how the Vikings saw themselves: portrayed in their own
writings or in the reports of people who knew them closely. Using a
series of translations from primary sources including runic
inscriptions, literary works, rare historical accounts and
eye-witness reports, this book brings the Viking world to life.
