A proposito di questo titolo

Did Christopher Columbus really discover America? Think again! In this episode, journey back over 1,000 years to the Age of Vikings and uncover the incredible story of Leif Erikson, the intrepid Viking explorer who reached North America nearly five centuries before Columbus.

You'll explore how Leif, son of the famous Erik the Red, was inspired by a merchant's tale and set sail into uncharted waters without maps or a compass. Discover the distinct lands he found, including the lush Vinland ("Wine Land"), and learn about the groundbreaking archaeological discovery at L'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland that proved his historic feat. Hear why Leif earned the nickname, "Leif the Lucky", and why his legacy of courage and discovery is celebrated today.
