From Vinland to the Volga: A History of Viking Exploration

From Vinland to the Volga: A History of Viking Exploration

Henry

"From Vinland to the Volga" is a podcast about the History of Viking Exploration. It follows a loosely chronological format, with each series covering a specific destination, and hopes to explain how a subcontinent containing only 3 million people became the first Europeans in North America, founded Russia, conquered large parts of Britain and (kinda) caused and led the first crusade! Oh, and it features alliteration aplenty and the occassional terrible pun.
