I had read about the abandonment of Greenland in Jared Diamond’s book Collapse. Here is a reaction to his analysis on the Greenland part of his book which disagrees with Diamond’s analysis.

I rather enjoyed Guns, Germs and Steel, though the author’s anti-European bias was obvious. I thought Collapse was just stupid. Not much to it besides anti-European bias.
Thanks, no surprise there.
Thanks for the heads up! Glad I didn’t waste my time on that one!
