Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive study of European geographical expeditions conducted in North America during the period from 1492 until 1542. A time when the geography of North America was a complete mystery, and the lands located to the West were believed to contain riches similar to those which had been discovered in the East. The author begins by outlining the limited geographical knowledge existing prior to Columbus's explorations and then traces the evolution of the idea of a vast continent positioned between Europe and Asia. The book presents detailed accounts of the explorations of the period by Spanish, Portuguese, French, and English explorers and concludes by discussing the significance of their discoveries for our understanding of the continent and the globe.
