Over the Edge of the World by Laurence Bergreen (9780007118311)

Description - Over the Edge of the World by Laurence Bergreen

The shockingly explicit diaries of Antonio Pigafetta reveal much of the story. This is a many-layered book - a voyage into history, a tour of the world as it was emerging from the Middle Ages into the Renaissance, an anthropological account of exotic tribes and a chronicle of a desperate grab for political and commercial power. It is also a gripping adventure story, full of suspense and drama.
