Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the remarkable journey of Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese explorer who led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe. It meticulously examines historical documents and firsthand accounts, including Magellan's own orders and letters from his contemporaries, to paint a vivid picture of his life, motivations, and the challenges he faced. Set against the backdrop of the Age of Discovery and the fierce rivalry between Spain and Portugal, the book explores the complexities of Magellan's decision to serve the Spanish crown and the political machinations that threatened to derail his expedition. It grapples with questions of loyalty, ambition, and the ethical considerations of exploration during this tumultuous period. Through detailed narratives and insightful analysis, the author sheds light on Magellan's unwavering determination, his exceptional navigational skills, and the sacrifices he and his crew made in their pursuit of knowledge and discovery. The book ultimately underscores the enduring legacy of Magellan's voyage, not only as a testament to human courage and resilience but also for its profound impact on our understanding of the world.
