This is an abridgement of Samuel Morison's magnum opus; The European Discovery of America; in which he describes the early voyages that led to the discovery of the New World. All the acclaimed Morison touches are here - the meticulous research and authoritative scholarship; along with the personal and compelling narrative style that gives the reader the feeling of having been there. Morison; of course; has been there; and The Great Explorers is enriched with photographs and maps he made while personally retracing the great voyages.
