Format:Hardcover
I love this book. It has lots of maps and illustrations. Best of all it covers the entire gamut of the Viking universe. It is a wonderful resource for getting your head around the big picture of the Viking age. I have researched Viking Age history for years now and this is one of the BEST books I have ever found.

Format:Paperback
the horrendously bloodthirsty and technologically brilliant vikings lives are explained in this book brilliantly, easy to understand yet very detailed and a very good starting point for further study i would recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in these bearded seafaring warriors, the world they inhabited, and the tremendously difficult existence they were faced with

This book is a good example of the current tendency to describe a book as an 'atlas' whether or not it actually has any maps in it. In 240 pages, this has just 30 maps!In reality this is a well illustrated and expertly (not to say academically) written introduction to Viking history - if this is what you want, it is a good buy. If its an atlas of the Viking age you want, there are better, and cheaper, products on the market.
