Prologue

Each volume in the "Beginning History" series tells children about different aspects of life in bygone times. The series provides general background information about each period covered. This book describes the sea voyages made by explorers from Europe in the 15th and 16th-centuries, including Columbus's discovery of America, Magellan's journey around the world, the voyages round the Cape of Good Hope and the search for a North-West passage. It explains why the navigators set sail, detailing their search for new routes to China and the Indies, and provides a clear picture of the suffering they endured in order to discover the world. Alan Blackwood has written children's books for such Wayland series as "Twenty Names", "Life and Times", "The Arts" and "Great Lives".
