| Summary, Etc. |
"This is the epic true story of the sailors who circumnavigated the Earth for the very first time, and of the people who shaped the voyage along the way. You'll meet the Indigenous peoples who encountered the crew, and Enrique de Malacca, the Malay guide who was forced to join the expedition and influenced it in undeniable ways. Travel with the crew as they survive humid jungles, frozen wastes, and wild waters, as well as danger and mutinies both on and off their ships. They carried home tales of faraway lands and people, and a powerful piece of knowledge: their expedition confirmed that the Earth is round. It was a history-making voyage that changed lives--and the world. Unapologetically and poignantly written and illustrated by Thekla Priebst, The Voyage That Changed the World will sweep you along on a globe-spanning adventure, exploring the triumphs, dangers, betrayals, and tragedies that marked this epic endeavour for a truly unforgettable read."-- Provided by publisher.
