A Voyage Long And Strange by Tony Horwitz
Rediscovering the New World
This engaging narrative takes readers on a captivating journey through the often-overlooked early history of America, exploring the adventures and misadventures of European explorers before the Pilgrims' arrival. The author embarks on a personal quest to uncover the forgotten stories of Norsemen, conquistadors, and other explorers who ventured into the New World, weaving together historical research with vivid travelogue experiences. Through a blend of humor, insight, and curiosity, the book sheds light on the complex tapestry of encounters that shaped the continent long before the familiar tales of colonial America.
