Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

More than you'll ever be able to...or want to read and know about...

The Vikings
** Learning Through History Magazine (backissue issue 1, volume 5, 2007) The Vikings
** Step Into the Viking World by Philip Steele
** Brendan the Navigator by Jean Fritz
** Leif the Lucky by Ingri and Edgar D'auilaire
** Beorn the Proud by Madeleine Polland
** Beowulf retold and illustrated by Ian Serrailler (I like this version. It was published by Bethlehem Books)

Haven't previewed these, but they would be good in this study
** The Vikings by John Clare
** Who Were the Vikings (Usborne)
** Penguin Historical Atlas of the Vikings by John Haywood
** The Oxford Illustrated History of the Vikings by Peter Sawyer
** Viking Longship by Keith Durham
** Roar's Circle: A Viking Ship Returns to Sea by Henrik Juel
** The Viking Invader (Newspaper Histories) by Paul Dowswell
** The Vikings: Voyagers of Discovery and Plunder

Online resources
** How to build a Viking ship - perhaps a little ambitious...but if you're really motivated, why not?
** PBS - Secrets of a Norse Ship
** Viking Ship Museum
** BBC - Ancient History Vikings
** PBS - Explore a Viking Village

Programs to view:
** The Big Build: Viking Longboat - The History Channel
** The Great Ships: The Viking Ships - The History Channel
** Histories Mysteries: Vikings: Fury of the North - The History Channel
** The Vikings - PBS
