Scotland's Vikings

By Gordon Jarvie and Frances Jarvie

From blood-curdling and violent beginnings to the end of Norse power in 1469, follow the Vikings as they settled large areas of the north and west of Scotland. Find out: why the Vikings travelled west-over-sea to Scotland; when and where they settled; why they sometimes buried their chiefs in longships; how the Picts and Scots coped with these invaders; what legacy the Vikings left behind.
