Rollo and His Race: Vol. I

The first of two volumes about Rollo's life, Rollo and His Race reveals the life and accomplishments of the Viking ruler of Normandy and his descendants. Born around 846, Rollo would live to become a distinguished Viking leader and the first ruler of the principality that came to be known as Normandy.  The great-great-great-grandfather of William the Conqueror, Rollo started a long line of great leaders. His descendants would become the Dukes of Normandy and the King of England. Even today, Rollo is an ancestor of the British royal family.
