VIKINGS OF THE IRISH SEA (PB)

The Vikings fully exploited their naval dominance of the Irish Sea to exert their influence across Britain and Ireland as well as the Scandinavian countries. This book explores the activities of the Vikings in Wales, Northwest England, the Isle of Man, Scotland, and Ireland. The archaeological evidence such as silver hoards and burials, along with the evidence of placenames, settlement and sculpture provide a fascinating insight into the mechanisms of Viking power in these areas.
