Everyday life and hands-on history in the Viking Age

Viking society is presented here through more than warfare: the book covers family life, women’s roles, clothing, food, craftsmanship, music, seafaring, language, customs and spiritual beliefs. Factual material is paired with practical activities, recipes and fictional accounts told from the perspective of a young Viking girl, giving the subject several points of entry. That mix makes the book a broad introduction to daily life and culture, as well as to exploration and naval achievements.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children aged 9–12 interested in Viking history and everyday life.
  • Young readers who enjoy recipes and practical activities alongside historical information.
  • Educators seeking activity-based material about the Viking Age for a youthful audience.
