Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the Portuguese expeditions to India led by Vasco da Gama from 1497 to 1524. As part of an ongoing effort to secure a direct trade route to the East, King John II of Portugal commissioned voyages to locate the Indies. After years of failed attempts to round Africaâs southern coast, Vasco da Gama successfully navigated the Cape of Good Hope and reached India in 1498, opening up a new era of global trade. This book details the events of this groundbreaking journey, describing the interactions with native populations and the establishment of Portuguese trade outposts in the East. Through firsthand accounts and historical analysis, the author sheds light on the motivations, challenges, and lasting impact of these voyages on world history and the spice trade.
