Hello! In this episode of It's History Podcast I dive into an insightful conversation with author Martyn Whittock about his latest book 'American Vikings: How the Norse Sailed into the Lands and Imaginations of America'. We discuss Viking exploration, their impact on America, the evidence supporting their presence, and their portrayal in pop culture. Martyn also shares his expertise as a historian and he offers a look into the interactions between Vikings and Native Americans.  Thank you again to Martyn for joining me on this episode!
