Let’s go raiding alongside Norse adventurers who settled in large areas of the world including North America during an era of Scandinavian expansion from 780 to 1100 AD. We examine the exploration, raids, conquests and colonization of the Norse, including their arrival in Newfoundland at L'Anse aux Meadows, during the great Viking Age... five centuries before Columbus sailed west. Enjoy this ENCORE presentation!
