Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
When Portuguese sailour Ferdinand Magellan set sail from Spain in 1519, he believed he could get to the Spice Islands by sailing west through or around the New World. He was right, but what he didn't know was that the treacherous voyage would take him three years and cost him his life. Black-and-white line drawings illustrate Magellan's life and voyage, with sidebars and a time line that enhance readers' understanding of the period.

Great subject for a children book. I got this series of books for my daughter and she really enjoyes reading them. Great read and educational too.

As an adult I thought the story was very intriging and exciting. This was
a Magellan that was never protrayed in history books of yore. The drawings were absolutely beautiful, full of so much detail and interesting features. This book makes a marvelous present for children
learning about history. After reading this book, I can't believe that
Hollywood has never made a movie about Magellan!
