He went to Wednesbury High School and Birmingham University where he graduated in 1933. For me personally it was very nostalgic and I was pleased that the story seems to have stood the test of time. Vikings Dawn Henry Treece 20 Paperback 6 offers from 14.98 Product description Book Description A Puffin Book - stories that last a lifetime About the Author Henry Treece (1911-1966) was born in the West Midlands. In this new land the Northmen meet up and befriend the Native American tribe called the Beothuk. Following this adventure they travel even further west and make landfall on the American continent.
Alas, a fierce storm blows the longship off course and they find themselves first in Iceland and then Greenland where they meet a tribe of Innuit. Their aim is to avenge an attack on their village by a rival group of Vikings. This book tells the story of Harald Sigurdson who sets out with his crew of Vikings in a longship. The language is easy to read, the book is short and the narrative goes ahead at a cracking pace. It is quite refreshing to read a story designed for children/young adults. The chase leads him across the Atlantic Ocean to the east coast of America. However, I am pleased to say this tale did not disappoint. When his village is attacked, he forms a crew of Vikings and pursues the raiders. It is not always a good idea to go back to books you liked as a child over 50 years later. I first read these books as a child in the 1960's and I rememembered them with much affection.
