Erling the Bold: A Tale of Norse Sea Kings! An Adventure, Nautical Classic By Robert Michael Ballantyne! AAA+++

It is a bold and stirring tale of the old Norse rovers who conquered and settled in England at various times between the fifth and eleventh centuries. The narrative is interesting of itself, and it gives an excellent description of the manners and customs of the rugged race who inhabited the North of Europe at the dawn of modern history.
