Description

Two manuscripts in one book:

• History of the Vikings: An Enthralling Overview of the Viking Age

• Norse Mythology: An Enthralling Overview of Norse Myths, Gods, and Goddesses

Learn how the Scandinavian people lived, who sailed as part of the Viking raids, the weapons used in battle, and their religious beliefs.

In the first part of this book, you will discover:

• The impact of the Ice Age on Norse landforms

The stories and myths of the Norse were passed down by the Vikings in oral tradition until they were recorded in manuscripts by anonymous authors in the mid-13th century. The myths that survived tell the story of how the world was first created by the gods using the dead body of a primeval giant, the existence of the different realms surrounding the universe, and various tales and lore about the gods' adventures.

In the second part of this book, you'll learn:
