Description

1854 Amerigo Vespucci Life & Voyages of Vasco da Gama Christopher Columbus Polo

A rare, mid-19th-century printing of the history, life, and expeditions of Amerigo Vespucci. Lester discusses the importance of European voyagers who sought to discover the New World. Other important voyagers mentioned in this work include Vasco da Gama and the Cape of Good Hope, Marco Polo, Alonso de Ojeda, and Juan de la Cosa. It also includes the letters of Paolo Toscannelli to Columbus.

This fourth edition is important as it differs from the original 1846 printing with articles of Columbus and the discovery of the Pacific Ocean.
