2.Viking Age Iceland (Penguin History)Viking Age Iceland (Penguin History)
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
With the publication of this great work & similar tomes by other scholars, the Norse people of the early Middle Ages are finally getting their due.

3.Iceland: Land of the SagasIceland: Land of the Sagas
from Villard
Price: $19.75

Customer Review:
A beautiful book combining stunning photography with an in-depth historical, literary, and cultural examination of Iceland. This book manages to be heavy on both text and photographs.
Recommended for those interested in Iceland, but it is not a travel guide-type book.

4.Reagan and Gorbachev: How the Cold War EndedReagan and Gorbachev: How the Cold War Ended
from Random House

Customer Review:
Reagan and Gorbachev are two of the most important men in the last half of the 20th century. Each of them, thru ways subtle and overt, led their nations to the point where the Cold War could end, and a new future could begin.

5.Women in the Viking AgeWomen in the Viking Age
from Boydell Press
Price: $31.45

Customer Review:
I found this to be rather dry, tho informative, with an irritating theme running through about 'not having enough evidence to really know for sure'. I appreciated her use of multiple disaplines to explore these women's lives... however, I find myself believing that MS. Jesch has much more knowledge... more info

from Harper Perennial
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
It's a really interesting book, full of details and easy to read.
The cover describes Fisher as a lone hero, but inside the description of the two competitors is much more balanced.
Probably it could include some more details about the chess games: even if I'm not an expert, I was forced... more info

9.The History of IcelandThe History of Iceland
from University of Minnesota Press
Price: $21.60

Customer Review:
Nothing much happened! Yes. In this comprehensive review of the history of Iceland, spanning some 1200 years, one is struck by the few numbers of people and the languid pace of events. More broadly, the book can be seen as a history of Scandinavia, with a focus on Iceland.
There is the... more info
