Reseña del libro "Amerigo Vespucci"
The true story of the explorer and scholar after who the entire continent of "America" is named. This remarkable work starts with the early life of the Italian-born explorer and then quickly moves on to the details of his fabulous voyages on behalf of Spain and Portugal from 1499 to 1502. Drawing heavily upon the explorer's own writing and other original sources, the full story of this remarkable-yet surprisingly little-known-Pilot Major of Spain is told in an intriguing and exciting fashion. Read here of the controversy surrounding Vespucci's first voyage, his remarkably accurate maps, and the many discoveries he made that later caused scholars to name the entire new world after him as a mark of honor.ContentsI: Young Amerigo And His Family 1451-1470II: Amerigo's Friends and Teachers 1470-1482III: Vespucci's Favorite Authors 1485-1490IV: In the Service of Spain 1490V: Conversations with Columbus 1492 Or 1493VI: Vespucci's Debatable Voyage 1497-1498VII: Vespucci's "Second" Voyage 1499-1500VIII: With Ojeda the Fighter 1499IX: Cannibals, Giants, And Pearls 1499-1500X: Famous Fellow-Voyagers 1497-1500XI: On the Coast of Brazil 1501-1502XII: The "Fourth Part of The Earth" XIIIXIII: The Fourth Great Voyage 1503-1504XIV: King Ferdinand's Friend 1505-1508XV: Pilot-Major of Spain 1508-1512XVI: How America Was Named 1504-1541Authorities On Amerigo Vespucci
