  • Kirby’s work is one of the most important secondary sources in this project. The Baltic and the North Seas, published in 2000, is a collaborative attempt by David Kirby and Merja-Liisa Hinkkanen to discuss the cultural impact that the Baltic and North Seas had on the civilizations adjoining them.
