Description
Five ships left Seville in 1519 and one returned in 1522, having done what no one had done: gone round. Magellan was killed in the Philippines less than halfway; Juan Sebastián Elcano, a Basque master who had been among the mutineers, brought the Victoria back with eighteen men aboard. The Spanish tradition has always told the story with both names in it, and Casimiro Gómez Ortega (1741-1818), botanist and editor, assembled this account accordingly. This edition was printed in Madrid in 1921 with red ornamental borders and portraits of the two captains. This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1921 Madrid edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
