Excellent historical account of Norse exploration of America
Mowat rethinks the Norse discovery of America Amongst the more remarkable attributes of this lengthy examinationof the old Icelandic and Norwegian sagas, is the locating of the probablesites for the major voyages of Eric the Red and Leif Ericsson and thewell-argued contention that neither of them was the first man to make adocumented voyage to the New World. According to Mowat, that honour goes tothe little-known Norwegian trader, Barnji Herjolfsson, who probably gaveEric the Red his sailing directions. Mowat doesn't take kindly to manyother conceptions about this period of Norse history and spendsconsiderable time debunking what he believes are myths created by scholarswho had no first-hand knowledge of either sailing or the particularcoastlines (Greenland, Newfoundland and Labrador) involved in the sagas.Indeed, his close examination of the available descriptions serves to pointvery much to the real sites as they might have been and show that many ofthe old theories (particularly to do with New England) have no value atall. Sailing enthusiasts who love to read will come readily aboard thisvessel and perhaps pitch their own knowledge against or alongside Mowat andthe various Newfoundland schooner captains whom he interviewed to find outtheir opinions about prevailing winds and currents. All in all, it's adelightful book, not too difficult to read, even for non-nautical types(Mowat chose to create quite a number of appendixes to hold all the verydetailed information and make the main text easier to read - they work verywell) and anyone even remotely interested in finding out who, as far as weknow, actually did discover America (or thinks they may have had Vikingancestors), should pick this up. As an added bonus, if you enjoy this book,there are several more by Mowat on the same theme, and dozens more by himon a wide range of associated subjects (the Arctic, the environment,sailing, whales etc.). ...

Small entries, but unique focus on Anglo-Saxon sources and heroic poems
Superb resource
a fine work in the field The Dictionary of Norse Myth and Legend by Andy Orchard, published in 1997 by Cassell, ISBN 0 304 34520 2, is also excellent. Despite the title, it also has entries on terms from non-Norse areas of the Germanic world. It is a somewhat larger book in terms of page size, and very nearly gives the impression of being a coffee table book. It is very attractive and is illustrated, howbeit not lavishly, with black and white photos. However, it is only 223 pages in length. It also has bibliographical information after the individual entries, but these are coded and you have to look them up in the back.
