Magellan
The First Circumnavigation of the Earth
‘Christian Jostmann has made an intensive study of his sources and transformed them into a detailed and colourful account of the journey and its background.’ Mark Häberlein, DAMALS
More than five hundred years ago Portuguese explorer Magellan took with him five ships to explore hitherto unknown waters in search of a new sea route to the Moluccas. These islands in the Pacific have always been steeped in legend and offered the prospect of endless riches due to the profusion of native spices. The adventures of Magellan and his companions embraced storms, hunger, mutiny and deadly conflicts with the local population, and these are brought vividly to life by historian Christian Jostmann in this new publication.
