Jean Fritz brings history to life once again in 10 true tales of 15th-century European explorers—from Bartholomew Diaz and Christopher Columbus to Juan Ponce de León and Vasco Nú?ez de Balboa—who changed the map and left behind stories of adventure too good to miss. Fritz approaches [the salient facts] with playful irreverence; accordingly, the frequently traveled material can seem refreshingly new. — Publishers Weekly, starred review [Fritz] turns in a fast-paced narrative enriched and enlivened by fascinating stories and details of the sort that rarely appear in standard textbooks. — Kirkus Reviews, pointer review No one is better than Jean Fritz at making history interesting as well as comprehensible. — The Horn Book Jean Fritz lives in Dobbs Ferry, New York. Anthony Bacon Venti lives in Rockland, Maine. Examines the great wave of European exploration during the fifteenth century which resulted in more accurate maps.
