Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The First Three English Books on America
Discoveries are made by successive steps, one after another; and the passage of English ships around the world and to the Eastern seas was but the succession and development of these first attempts to Marocco. All that we know of these Barbary voyages is preserved to us by Hakluyt, who collected his information forty to fifty years after the event, and has thus transmitted it to us.
