This book is a tale in images of a most unusual journey from Roskilde to Dublin. The voyage took place on board “The Sea Stallion from Glendalough,” a full scale reconstruction of the 30 meter long warship - “Skuldelev 2”- that was built in Dublin in the 1040s. The voyage recorded in this book went from Roskilde via Norway to the Orkney islands, down the west coast of Scotland and across the Irish Sea to Dublin. 1200 nautical miles through waters that tied the western world of the Vikings together.
