Mazón proves - at least he has convinced this reviewer - that the route taken by the I Victoria i was not in anyone's mind in 1519, that it represented a much steeper nautical challenge than is usually assumed, and that Elcano's men were enthusiastic about it not just for nautical or military reason...

In particular, Mazón finds that Elcano played a more decisive role than hitherto thought in the second part of the expedition. The interest of such funds for the prosopography of the Magellan-Elcano expedition has already been fruitfully demonstrated, in particular by Juan Gil.[3] The additional data that remain to be dug out in a comprehensive study of those documents might have anyway exceeded the physical limits of Mazón's book, but they can certainly still enrich the biographies on his website. pubtype: Review doctype: Book Review src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2021 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
