Synopsis

The story of John Cabot's voyage from Bristol to North America in "The Matthew", and of preparations for a 500th-anniversary voyage in a full-sized replica ship in May 1997. The book is part historical detective work and part insight into life in the great age of discovery in the late-15th century.
