Episode 867 - VALUR GUNNARSSON: VANISHED VIKINGS - GREENLAND AND ICELAND FROM THE MIDDLE AGES TO TODAY

Today on RÚV English Radio: a mystery.

What happened to the sizeable and thriving Norse colony in Greenland, some time in the 15th century? What might have been different had it survived?

Valur Gunnarsson's latest book, now also published in English, tries to answer those questions.

Valur joined Darren to discuss his book.
