In this worthy addition to the Elite series, Ian Heath transports us to
the time of the Vikings examining their epic journeys and the ships they
made them in, their methods of warfare - the organisation of their
armies and tactics employed, their appearance and equipment and the
general history of these fascinating warrior-explorers. His
authoritative text is backed by many fine illustrations and photographs
including 12 stunning full colour plates by Angus McBride, one of the
world's most respected military artists.
