Simon Goes North to Novgorod

Více o knize

Simon ben Levi, a sixteen year old Jewish trader in Viking Norway and his young wife Leah, travel north from Bjorgvin to trade for furs, ivory and jewels. Trading on the arctic seas and in the deep northern forests requires ships, swords, diplomatic skill and especially courage from both to deal with Russian princes, Viking jarls and Saami tribesmen. Nor is Bjorgvin, now Bergen, a peaceful city in the eleventh century when this tale takes place.
