[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 432986, member: 1723"] Anyone here into Viking history that can recommend a good book for a neophyte? I've looked at amazon.com and there are dozens of books on the subject. Picking the right one to start with becomes the challenge. And the ratings/reviews are somewhat helpful, yet it would be beneficial if there was someone here who might be more versed in Viking lore to direct me in my quest. I guess what I'm looking for is a well written introduction into the Vikings and their adventures/battles/quests. Sort of the 101 if you will. I hasten to add this this meant to be an inspiration for a new song I've written that is intended to be a sweeping overlook on the Vikings and their history. And I need lyrics, but want to research it properly. So have the arrangement and melody vocal line. Just need to flesh out the lyrics. Interestingly, the area in which I live has plenty of Viking influence. Particularly the Poulsbo, WA area where I once lived. Think I may also reach out to the Viking society in that area. TIA Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
