DESCRIPTION:
There was land beyond the western seas! Of that Leif Ericsson was sure. His friend Bjarni had seen it, with its rich green forests growing down to the sandy shores. Because they lived in the tenth century, neither Leif nor Bjarni could know that one day those forests would be cleared to make New England towns and villages. To put his feet down on that distant land became Leif's dream, for he was a child of the wandering Vikings. Roving the seas was was as natural to Leif as breathing the air of his Greenland home. Elizabeth Janeway's The Vikings opens with a stirring episode. Until the tale reaches its end, there is scarely a page without a feeling of excitement and high adventure.
