The woodchipper guy from 'Fargo' chases a 600-year Viking mystery

In 1898, Olof Öhman, a Swedish immigrant in America, reported that he had found a grey slab of rock carved with runes in a field in Minnesota. It soon became known by the name of the nearby settlement of Kensington. And that’s about the only thing that’s clear about this rock. Was it, as the inscription on the rock suggests, left there by Vikings in 1362? Or was Öhman a liar?...
