History of Vikings by Alexander Cooper
History is always filled with information, which describes different events that took place at different periods. As we read history books, we learn and discover about certain events. We learn what preceded those events or what caused them. We want to know why things were as they were (or how we learned). However, the main thing with history is that information we have can often be misleading or incomplete. The similar thing happened with Vikings. For many of us, the first picture that comes to our minds when we mention the word “Viking” is a savage, colossal man, wearing a beard, and carrying a huge axe in one hand.
Many of us have at least heard of the Vikings. We think we know something about them. However, things we know are usually not in correlation with the real historical facts. This is where this book comes to the scene. “History of Vikings” is a book where we read about Vikings, their customs, their life, and more. Since the book is a collection of close historical facts, “History of Vikings” is written to educate its readers. If you wanted to know more about the mystical people from the Northern Europe then this book is just for you!
