Book
In 1960, Helge Ingstad and Anne Stine Ingstad made a discovery that rewrote the history of European exploration and colonisation of North America - a 1000-year-old Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows, Newfoundland. Here, the Ingstads' daughter Benedicte tells the story of their remarkable lives spent working together, sharing poignant details from her parents' private letters, personal diaries, their dinner table conversations and Benedicte's own participation in her parents' excavations.
