Havamal is the word of wisdom which gave spiritual nourishment to the Vikings on their long journeys and rough sea to discover new lands.

These sayings give a clear picture of their view points and attitudes towards life.

Havamal tells you how to treat guests and how to behave, and advises you about the art of living, friendship, money, happiness, eating, traveling and even positive thinking.

Havamal tells you how to use power, tells you about the nature of secrecy, explains foresight and agility, extravagance and moderation.

Havamal has often been compared to to the old Chinese book of the Tao (The Way), which could be called the wisdom of the east.

In the same manner the Havamal is well described as the wisdom of the north.

One of the classics from the viking age. The original Havamal is now available in an new and readable translation, and is presented in a format that appeals to modern-day readers.
