This is the unwritten tale behind a mysterious marker stone found in Minnesota - about an epic and desperate last Nordic voyage to a rumored fertile land far to the west beyond Greenland. This story is about impatient young men eager to leave the doomed Norse peninsula - just as nation building, the Roman church, and the black plague closed in around them. The participants include the Norse grandson of a seafaring discoverer-explorer, a dissident Swedish Cistercian Priest disillusioned by Church corruption, and a Sami girl who recognized that the free-roaming nomadic days of her own people would soon be doomed as well.

Steven Kent Olson Born (1946) and raised on a dairy farm in northern Wisconsin. I am fourth generation Norwegian on my mother's side, second generation on my father's. When I was still in grade school my school teacher mother told me of the Kensington stone and showed me on a map how this could have happened. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin Madison with a history degree, but made my living remodeling houses. I did not start writing seriously until I retired.
