PRODUCT SUMMARY
Sailing 500 years before Columbus, the Vikings are credited with being the first Europeans to reach the New World. Join our two young hosts as they speak with Leif Erikson as he recounts the history of the Age of Vikings. Discover why the Vikings decided to leave their European homes in search of fertile lands, timber and adventure. Learn how the technology of their ships enabled them to voyage to new lands. Hear the tale of Erik the Red and his quest to settle a new colony in Greenland. Then, listen as Erikson describes the Viking attempts to settle in Vinland, which many historians now believe to be in modern-day Newfoundland. Part of the multivolume Explorers of the World Video Series. Includes a Teacher's Guide.
