    see the review of the Discoveries book of Marilyn Monroe, it was a rave, but it was about the whole series. this is just a wonderful history book of the arts left behind of the Vikings, which i knew nothing in particular about, before reading this book. i wish these were used in school...i would have gotten a better grade and education out of it.

    3.0 out of 5 stars a biased book
    Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    While this book has great illustrations and pictures, the writing is biased depicting the Vikings as savages - even using very outdated terminology - when later works demonstrate that they were no more savage than other groups - just different.

    Chapter IV - The Swedes and the Route to the East

    5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful Little Book
    Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2007
    The Vikings, Lords of the Seas, By Yves Cohat

    What a great little book this is. It is reminiscent of the small pocket field guides that you could buy at the check-out counters of grocery stores when I was a kid. The main difference between those and this book is that this work is for adults and much better illustrated. If you are looking for a quick, inexpensive and fairly accurate synopsis of the Norse explosion onto the world stage in the 900's, this is the book for you. The book is lavishly illustrated with some of the clearest photos and sharpest, accurate drawings I've ever run across.
    This book covers nearly every aspect of Old Norse life. Despite a few minor errors I think that the book and the translation were very competently done. The last section of the book , "Documents", give the reader a quick and dirty taste of the Edda's & Sagas, Runes, everyday Norse life and more. I also liked the "Chronology" section at the end of the book. While it is not as detailed as I would have preferred, it does give the reader a continuity of events going on at the same time. All and all very enjoyable, informative and reasonably priced overview of the period.

    In Frith,
    Spence

    5.0 out of 5 stars An appetizer of Viking history.
    Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2008
    The Vikings, Lords of the Seas by Yves Cohat is an excellent pocket sized guide book to all things Viking. The book is an easy read and gives you just enough of Viking history to understand it but want to learn more. The first part of the book breaks down their origins, life at sea, the ships and even life at home. It has chapters on the explorations of Iceland, Greenland and North America along with the Danes and Norse in Britain as well as the Swedes and the founding of Russia. Of course they explain the Viking roots of the Normans which conquered Italy and England via William the Conqueror.

    Every page of each chapter is vividly illustrated with color paintings, photos and diagrams to illustrate the Viking world. The last part of the book is some of the translated works by and of the Vikings that give us a glimpse of their world. This is a great book for the novice or collector of Viking literature.
