The First Book of the Vikings by Louise Dickinson Rich, illustrated by Lili Réthi, is a classic mid-century introduction to Viking history written for young readers.

Published in 1962 by Franklin Watts, this volume explores daily life, seafaring, community structure, and the wider Viking world, with strong black-and-white illustrations throughout. A solid, readable overview that works equally well as a teaching copy or an engaging piece of vintage history.

Former school library copy.
