Product Description

This is a story of saints & spies, of fishermen & pirates, traders & marauders
- & of how their wild & daring journeys across the North Sea built the world we know.

When the Roman Empire retreated, northern Europe was a barbarian outpost at the very edge of everything. A thousand years later, it was the heart of global empires & the home of science, art, enlightenment & money. We owe this transformation to the tides & storms of the North Sea.

The water was dangerous, but it was far easier than struggling over land; so it was the sea that brought people together. Boats carried food & raw materials, but also new ideas & information.

The seafarers raided, ruined & killed, but they also settled & coupled. With them they brought new tastes & technologies
- books, clothes, manners, paintings & machines.
