SYNOPSIS: Viking America is a startling book that questions or disproves most widespread theories about the discovery and colonization of North America. James Robert Enterline argues that Norsemen not only sailed to America but established longstanding colonies there - settlements that survived for at least two centuries. Enterline also shows how Nordic maps might have found their way to Columbus - thereby at least partly revealing to him what he is credited with originally "discovering". Equally provocative is his contention that the Legendary "Vinland" was not located in the temperate reaches of New England or Newfoundland but much further north in sub-Arctic Canada. These theories make Viking America one of the most sweeping and controversial books yet written about the original exploration of North America. James Robert Enterline has devoted himself over the past few years to exploring the hotly debated subject of whether it was Columbus or Leif Eiriksson who first discovered the New World. His research has included field work in Greenland and Iceland, and has led him to formulate a new theory on the Norse presence in North America which he presents here in this startling and fascinating book. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
