This book discusses the ship routes taken by the peoplx we call ‘Vikings’ and also the long fascination we’ve had with them. We know they were the first to discover America. The sagas aren’t just stories, they contain actual history; some of the places mentioned are thought to be places in America, and Canada. What is it about these ancient peoplx that fascinates us so much? This book delves into that question, exploring the many things they are found in today, including sports, movies, tv shows, comic books. It also talks about the darker side of this obsession. Think the American Nazi Party in the 1930s, fascism then and now, not just in America but other countries as well; the ‘QAnon Shaman’ from January 6, 2021 at the Capitol is also mentioned. Very interesting historical read but the question remains: why the obsession?
