Review:

I get more solid information our of young readers books than I can from a stack of textbooks. They’re uncluttered and in plain language.

1421 to 1521, from Henry the Navigator through to Magellan. Just 100 years from sailing within sight of shore to a complete circumnavigation of the globe. Nothing short of incredible.

Illustrations were great.

This book made me want to: Stay off of wooden ships on risky voyages
