Episode 49: Vikings Among the English and French

Following the death of Alfred, there was a decade of relative peace between the Anglo-Saxons and the Danes.  During this period, Scandinavian settlers continued to migrate to the Danelaw.  In this episode, we explore the early Scandinavian influence on English in the Danelaw.  We also examine the continuing Viking raids in France, and the founding of Normandy in the year 911.
