Beskrivelse
Omtale
The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made available edited (and sometimes translated) early accounts of exploration. This volume contains the letters of the Zeno brothers (c. 1326–1403), purporting to relate an expedition to America. R. H. Major provides an analysis demonstrating the ingenuity of this fabricated account.
