many centuries. John Haywood's book is an exciting history of the ancient Scandinavians, as well as a narrative about their mythology, according to which the journey of the people of the North began in Asgard at the creation of the world. The author places this civilization in a broad historical context, from its pagan roots to its integration into Christian Europe. This approach helps to see that in different countries, the Viking Age occurred at different times. It was a special world, born in the early centuries of our era in Western Europe, and ultimately disappearing only in the 15th century in Greenland.
