This book describes the western exploration of Europeans in the Middle how the Portuguese, Vikings, and Irish discovered Greenland, Vinland, and Newfoundland. The adventurers colonized these new lands, but their attempts eventually failed, possibly because of climate change, or because their old homelands ceased to supply them with provisions.
