Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the explorations undertaken by the first Dutch expedition to the East Indies, charting their encounters with people, places and cultures never before seen by Europeans. In the twilight of the 16th century, four ships set off from the port of Amsterdam, bound for the riches of the east. In their wake they left the well-known trade routes and familiar shores of Europe and found themselves in a world of unfamiliar landscapes, alien tongues and extraordinary marvels. The author narrates their adventures, successes and misfortunes in rich detail, giving a unique insight into the challenges and rewards of early global exploration. With a crew composed of men from across the continent, spanning several social strata, the narrative is as much about the idiosyncrasies of human nature as it is about distant lands. The author provides vivid accounts of the characters he encounters, from humble sailors and ambitious commanders to foreign potentates, each with their own motivations, desires, and foibles. This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the Age of Exploration, maritime history, or a taste for adventure on an epic scale.
