Book The Lost Voyage of John Cabot

Download or read book The Lost Voyage of John Cabot written by Henry Garfield and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1498. Sebastian Cabot age fifteen, can only wait and wonder. His famous father has abandoned him at home in Bristol, England, but has taken the boy's older and younger brothers, Ludovico and Sancio, on his second voyage in search of the Asian mainland. On his first journey, sailing north across the Western Ocean in 1497, John Cabot had discovered the New Found Land. He returned to England a hero. Five years earlier, Spain had given Christopher Columbus a similar welcome. He had found Asia, he claimed. And by a southern route. Cabot was skeptical and set out to the north again to prove his old friend a fraud. But silence followed. Now, Sebastian and history are confronted with a tantalizing mystery. What has become of Cabot's second endeavor? Letters to the boy from fourteen-year-old Sancio tell of a fearsome storm and its aftermath. They, and the surprising climax to Sebastian's and Sancio's shared story, make for unforgettable voyaging.

Book The Voyage of the Matthew

    Book Details:
  • Author : P. L. Firstbrook
  • Publisher : McClelland & Stewart Limited
  • Release : 1997
  • ISBN : 9780771031212
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book The Voyage of the Matthew written by P. L. Firstbrook and published by McClelland & Stewart Limited. This book was released on 1997 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 24 June 1497, the Genoese adventurer John Cabot, bearing letters patent from King Henry VII, became the first European known to have set foot in North America. (Cabot’s contemporary, Christopher Columbus, never actually landed in North America. To his dying day he thought it was the Orient.) Cabot’s triumphant appropriation of the “New Founde Land” for England capped one of the great maritime adventures of the late fifteenth century. Five hundred years later, the Matthew, a painstakingly constructed replica of Cabot’s three-masted caravel, sailed from Bristol, England, to Bonavista, Newfoundland. Her arrival marked the culmination of a maritime adventure as daring in its way as the voyage it commemorates. This time, however, the trials of the captain and sailors on board were recorded on camera and in reporters' notebooks for armchair onlookers to enjoy. Peter Firstbrook has been intimately involved in the recreation of Cabot’s voyage, from the laying down of the modern-day Matthew’s keel in 1993 to its sea trials in 1996 and the voyage itself in 1997. In these pages he relates all that is known about the fifteenth-century adventurer and describes the many challenges that confronted the team that set out to replicate his voyage. The book concludes, like Cabot’s own life, with a mystery: there is no record of how the great seafarer ended his days. He may have simply retired. He may have been lost in a storm on his last attempted voyage to America. Or he may, in fact, have returned to the newly discovered continent only to be murdered by a notorious Spanish buccaneer. This is a finely wrought story of adventure and discovery that will delight and entertain readers on both sides of the Atlantic.

Book Merchants and Explorers

Download or read book Merchants and Explorers written by Heather Dalton and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early sixteenth century, a young English sugar trader spent a night at what is now the port of Agadir in Morocco, watching from the tenuous safety of the Portuguese fort as the local tribesmen attacked the "Moors." Having recently departed the familiar environs of London and the Essex marshes, this was to be the first of several encounters Roger Barlow was to have with unfamiliar worlds. Barlow's family was linked to networks where the exchange of goods and ideas merged, and his contacts in Seville brought him into contact with the navigator, Sebastian Cabot. Merchants and Explorers follows Barlow and Cabot across the Atlantic to South America and back to Spain and Reformation England. Heather Dalton uses their lives as an effective narrative thread to explore the entangled Atlantic world during the first half of the sixteenth century. In doing so, she makes a critical contribution to the fields of both Atlantic and global history. Although it is generally accepted that the English were not significantly attracted to the Americas until the second half of the sixteenth century, Dalton demonstrates that Barlow, Cabot, and their cohorts had a knowledge of the world and its opportunities that was extraordinary for this period. She reveals how shared knowledge as well as the accumulation of capital in international trading networks prior to 1560 influenced emerging ideas of trade, "discovery," settlement, and race in Britain. In doing so, Dalton not only provides a substantial new body of facts about trade and exploration, she explores the changing character of English commerce and society in the first half of the sixteenth century.
