An uncompromising study of the fictions, the failures, and the real man behind the myth of Magellan.

The truth that Fernández-Armesto uncovers about Magellan’s life, his character, and the events of his ill-fated voyage offers up a stranger, darker, and even more compelling narrative than the fictional version that has been celebrated for half a millennium.Magellan did not attempt—much less accomplish—a journey around the globe.
