The Life of Amerigo Vespucci : Biography, Letters, Narratives, Personal Accounts & Historical Documents

This eBook edition of "The Life of Amerigo Vespucci" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer, navigator and cartographer who first demonstrated that Brazil and the West Indies did not represent Asia's eastern outskirts as initially conjectured from Columbus' voyages, but instead constituted an entirely separate landmass hitherto unknown to Europeans. Colloquially named the New World, this second super continent came to be known as "Americas", deriving its name from Americus, the Latin transcription of Vespucci's first name. Learn more about the man who gave his name to the new continent, read his personal letters, diaries and what his contemporaries wrote about him.
