I Vichinghi. Ediz. a colori
ill., ril. Pirati e saccheggiatori assetati di sangue: per secoli, i guerrieri vichinghi hanno terrorizzato le coste dell'Europa, dal Mar del Nord al Mediterraneo, lasciando dietro di sé una lunga scia di devastazione. Ma la storia di questi navigatori nordici è molto più di un semplice racconto di sangue e di razzie. Intrepidi pionieri e colonizzatori, i Vichinghi hanno intrapreso molti viaggi di esplorazione in tutto il mondo, sbarcando in America ben 500 anni prima di Colombo. Esaminando il loro stile di vita nella quotidianità, durante i viaggi e sui campi di battaglia, questo libro illustra ai lettori il mondo dei Vichinghi nel pieno del suo splendore.
