Rise of Christianity in Northern Europe, 300-1000 (Revised)

Carole M. Cusack presents a study of the process of conversion among the Germanic people-including those in Scandinavia and Iceland-from the third to eleventh centuries. This book begins by examining previous scholarship on this conversion process. It then proceeds to develop a new model of conversion appropriate to the Germanic peoples. Cusack extends this model to compare six different Germanic conversions.
