Join the Time Turner History Book Club for its January discussion of The Sea Wolves: A History of the Vikings by Lars Brownworth.
The book traces the Norse from the sacking of Lindisfarne and the conquest of the British Isles to sweeping campaigns across Europe and into Constantinople. More than a story of brute force, it explores Viking society as sophisticated merchants, innovative law-makers who introduced the jury system, and fearless explorers who reached North America. Discover the true saga of the Viking Age through legendary figures such as Ragnar Lodbrok and Leif the Lucky.
The discussion will take place in the Library Conference Room, with light refreshments provided. A limited number of copies of the book are available for checkout at the library.
