Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the life and career of Portuguese explorer Hernando de Magallanes, whose 1519 expedition discovered the strait that bears his name. It explores the historical context that led to his voyage, the challenges he faced in assembling his crew and financing the expedition, and the remarkable journey itself. The author draws on a wealth of primary sources to provide a detailed and engaging account of Magallanes's quest for a westward passage to the Spice Islands and his ultimate discovery of the strait that connected the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Along the way, the book delves into the broader themes of exploration, navigation, and the European search for new trade routes during the Age of Discovery. By examining Magallanes's life and achievements, the book sheds light on the pivotal role he played in shaping our understanding of the world and expanding the horizons of human knowledge.
