Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A rich mixture of scholarship and modern-day adventure that brings the forgotten first chapter of America's history vividly to life. "Consistently eye-opening and entertaining . . .

Horwitz tells the story of these brave and often crazed explorers while retracing their steps on his own epic trek--an odyssey that takes him inside an Indian sweat lodge in subarctic Canada, down the Mississippi in a canoe, on a road trip fueled by buffalo meat, and into sixty pounds of armor as a conquistador reenactor in Florida.…
