A narrative history of the great voyages of discovery culminating with the circumnavigation of the Earth by Magellan and the opening up of successful Pacific trade routes. A final chapter considers the impact of European expansion, its effect on the European world view and economy and the challenges to the Spanish and Portuguese from the Dutch, English and French.
First sentence: The age of exploration (1400-1600) opened up the geographical and cultural horizons of Europeans along with the rest of the world in an unprecedented and permanent way.
