I have one as well, buried among my various boxes of books.
But it deals more with the weapons, brooches, and various items of everyday Norse life..

Mine is "A History Of The Vikings" by Gwyn Jones. It is extremely well-written and very comprehensive, and includes a lot of myths and what events they were based on.

It includes photos of whatever has been found, up to the time the book was written. And drawings/maps of settlements in various places. Good reading.
