Synopsis of In Search of History: Viking Explorers

Look beyond the myth and ambiguity to gain a comprehensive understanding of the Scandinavian explorers who were rumored to land on America's shores centuries before Christopher Columbus as the filmmakers of The History Channel travel back in time to the era of the Viking. A restoration of the fabled longship cuts across the North Atlantic into uncharted territory as historians recount the tales of Leif Ericsson and his famed father Eric the Red. A rare interview with L'anse aux Meadows discoverer and modern-day Norse explorer Helge Ingstad offers unprecedented insight into the lives of these legendary adventurers. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
