Land Ho!

From Columbus to Cabrillo, this book follows the adventures and misadventures of twelve famous and very greedy explorers from the 15th and 16th centuries. Looking for gold, they found fish, fur, timber, silver, oceans, mountains and a vast continent from Canada to Patagonia at the tip of South America. They also discovered the lands were already inhabited by dark-haired people wearing feathers, furs, hides, bones and beads...or in some cases, no clothes at all. Included in this book are pictures of antique maps, ships, navigational instruments and travel routes.
