The narrative centers on Gudrid, a Viking woman who journeyed to the New World centuries before Columbus, as recounted in Icelandic sagas. Despite skepticism about her story, archaeological discoveries in Newfoundland and Iceland have revived interest in her life. Nancy Marie Brown collaborates with scientists to explore Gudrid's journey and the societal context of her time, revealing a complex, resilient woman whose experiences challenge historical narratives and highlight the factors leading to her society's decline.
