Tropics Bound

Autor James Seay Dean
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 sep 2010
Elizabeth's Seadogs on the Spanish Main. The forgotten century of English voyages to the Americas (1518-1618). 'Tropics Bound' examines not only the oft-forgotten history of this period of English exploration between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, but also looks at the voyages themselves, through the eyes of the sailors who faced that daunting journey. It is a story of adventure, hardship and courage. Written by an historian with a practical knowledge of seamanship, this is an important contribution to our understanding of the early period of (failed) English attempts at colonisation.
