All are welcome to join the World History and Cultural Events Book Group. This month the group will discuss River Kings by Cat Jarman who came into possession of a small orange bead. Her investigation into its origin would cast radical new light on the Vikings from the surprisingly extensive Scandinavian forays into the East to the dominance of a global slave trade running between the Silk Road and medieval Britain.
This is a major reassessment and a thrilling investigative story, revealing both the world of the Vikings and the cutting edge forensic methods we use to understand them.
