What is The Viking Age: A Reader, Second Edition (Readings in Medieval Civilizations and Cultures) about?

By assembling, translating, and arranging over one hundred primary source readings, the authors of this extremely popular book have successfully illuminated the Vikings and their world for a modern audience. The diversity of the Viking Age is brought to life through the wide range of both historical and literary sources; the book also provides insight into the remarkable geographical and chronological expanse of the Viking Age. The Norse translations, many of them new to this collection, are straightforward and easy to read, and the chapter introductions contextualize the readings while allowing the sources to speak for themselves. Reorganized into fourteen chapters, the second edition includes twenty new readings, incorporating material on children, games and entertainment, and runic inscriptions.
