Description
"Historians are often divided into two camps when asked to name the first person to circumnavigate the world; there are those who say Ferdinand Magellan was, while others argue the victor was Francis Drake. Readers will learn the controversies surrounding these 16th-century captains and their infamous journeys. They ll learn about the political intrigues and economic incentives to find a route and the lasting effects of the expeditions. Besides containing the thrilling accounts of Magellan s and Drake s adventures, this beguiling book s historical images, maps, sidebars, and timeline complement social studies and geography curricula." --,(Source of summary not specified)
