Summary

Millions love the hit television show Vikings - but how many fans know that its main character, Ragnar, is based on an actual Viking king whose ambitious and terrifying exploits have been legend since the ninth century?

The Legend of Ragnar Lothbrok presents fascinating new translations of ninth, 12th, and 13th-century writings - including sagas, poems, and historical accounts - that describe, in vivid detail, the adventures of Ragnar, his sons, and his formidable wives, Lagertha the Shieldmaiden and Princess Aslaug.

Interesting with great detail

I felt the book was particularly good in the first half. The 2nd half was a little confusing at times but still great details. made go back and watch the Vikings series, listening closely to the sub dialogues

3 versions of the same stories

is very good but comes down to repeats of the same stories with conflicting facts. shows how unreliable some old sources are
