Lumen asked James L. Nelson:

Good day James! I am going to be travelling to Ireland soon and have a particular interest in the Viking presence there. This interest landed me on your Norsemen Saga. I imagine it would require a great deal of historical knowledge to write such a fiction, and so I wonder if you may have any non-fiction suggestions for me to delve into? Thank you so much!

James L. Nelson Thanks for the question and I envy your trip to Ireland. I think there are some great exhibits of Viking finds in Dublin, but I'm not sure where in Dublin. I missed them on my last trip, so you should research that. As to your question, yes, I do have a lot of nonfiction sources. I've compiled a (mostly) compete bibliography of the books I've referenced. I've been meaning to put it up on my website but it is languishing on the long list of stuff to do. I don't think I can attach a file here, but if you want to e-mail me at jlnelson76@comcast.net I'd be happy to send the bibliography along.
