Więcej o książce
The book delves into the pre-Columbian history of the Atlantic Ocean, tracing its geological formation to the Castilian conquest of the Canary Islands. John Haywood challenges the notion that Atlantic history starts with Columbus, emphasizing that European maritime skills evolved over centuries. Through his travels, he explores diverse locations and the rich tapestry of seafarers and cultures that shaped this history. By intertwining geology, mythology, and maritime technology, the narrative reveals the foundational role of the Atlantic in Europe's global exploration and colonial endeavors.
