The Vinland sagas : the Norse discovery of America
2004
Books
One of the most arresting stories in the history of exploration, these two Icelandic sagas tell of the discovery of America by Norsemen five centuries before Christopher Columbus. In spare and vigorous prose they record Europe's first surprise glimpse of the eastern shores of North America and the natives who inhabited them.
