exploring and traveling, not discovering conquering
submitted by shumoon on May 15, 2015, 7:09am
It's nice to have a book on explorers that doesn't misrepresent explorers as "discoverers" of new places and doesn't glorify conquistadors.
The story of Zhenge He's Treasure Fleet is amazing. No pirates could mess with a fleet that large.
