Book ID/图书代码： 12749013B65365
English Summary/英文概要： An illustrated adventure telling the story of King Harald Sigurdsson, the last King of the Vikings.
Based on a true story Harald’s adventure takes him from a frightened teenager to wealthy and powerful warrior and, finally, to ruthless and tyrannical king whose excessive ambition leads him to a futile, yet glorious, death in England at the battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066.
In this exciting and action-packed story Harald journeys across the world from Scandinavia to Russia, Byzantium, Sicily, Turkey, Palestine and finally England. Travelling over land and by sea he gathers wealth, recognition and power along the way and meets a range of famous and flamboyant historical figures including Cnut the Great, Prince Jaroslav of Kiev, the Empress Zoe and King Harold of England.
Wonderful illustrations bring the story to life and special feature pages draw on real objects discovered from the Viking Age to give more information about the world Harald lived in.
