Product Information
W. Hodding Carter cannot sail, hates to be cold, and panics when he's lost. So why did he devote three years of his adult life, not to mention a small fortune, to dodging polar bears and icebergs on an open-decked wooden ship resembling an oversized canoe? He'd always wanted to be a Viking. bsessed with Leif Eriksson and his triumphant voyage a thousand years ago from Greenland to North America, Carter hatched the foolhardy idea of re-enacting the voyage in a replica of the precarious Viking cargo ship known as a 'knarr'. Never mind that he had a pregnant wife and twin daughters. Carter was going to make it happen. nthralling, inspiring, and occasionally hair-raising.Product Identifiers
