William R. Short is the manager of Hurstwic, "an organization that researches, practices, teaches, and demonstrates the fighting moves of Viking-age warriors."

As Dr. Short tells me in a recent email, "we are ... a research-based organization that is interested in all things Vikings. We use the scientific approach, and layers of many sources to learn more about all aspects of Viking life, history, and culture. We are proud of the integrity of our research and of our organization."

In this Crowdcast, which he titles "Blood of Ymir: Viking Combat at Sea," Dr. Short will present some of the relevant research his team at Hurstwic has done on Viking naval fighting, and take your questions on related topics.
