A Military and Political History of the Viking Expansion.By Atlas Meyers
Length52m
About this audiobook
This volume constructs a rigorous chronological analysis of the Viking Age, spanning from the initial raids of the late eighth century to the definitive battles of 1066. "Tides of Conquest" examines the strategic evolution of Norse aggression, tracing the shift from seasonal coastal predation to large-scale colonization and empire-building. It details the technological supremacy of the longship, the invasion of the Great Heathen Army, and the establishment of the Danelaw in England. The text further explores the consolidation of power in Scandinavia, documenting how decentralized chieftain-led warbands coalesced into centralized Christian monarchies. This serves as a foundational primer on the military mechanics and geopolitical consequences of the Viking expansion.
