The Discovery of Mankind: Atlantic Encounters in the Age of Columbus
David Abulafia
From the first recorded encounters with the native inhabitants of the Canary Islands in 1341 to Columbus' explorations in 1492 and Cabral's discovery of Brazil in 1500, western Europeans struggled to make sense of the existence of the people they met. This book explores the social lives of the inhabitants.
