. . . and deliver us from the Vikings.

I'm a little late getting the word out, but you can still follow the voyage of the latter day Vikings from Roskilde to Dublin. The Sea Stallion is a replica built based on the original ship recovered from Roskilde Fjord and preserved at the Viking Ship Museum. Sixty men and women are serving as the crew. The website has lots of links to historical information, crew diaries, and other scholarly input (armchair diaries). The ship left on July 1 and is scheduled to arrive in Dublin before the middle of August.
