Summary

Turn west, focusing on Viking exploits in Iceland, Greenland, and Vinland. Study the history of Viking settlement in Iceland, from Náttfari the slave's arrival to the rise of proto-democratic government. And evaluate why Northmen-famous for their global reach-could not stick it out for long in North America.
