Casts light on the time of Amerigo Vespucci and reveals a man far removed from the fanatical descriptions of his admirers and from the slander of his enemies.
In spite of the fact that an entire continent was named after him, Amerigo Vespucci remains one of the least researched characters in American history. In an attempt to find the man behind the character, this book casts light on the time of Vespucci and on the reasons why many traditional historians do not know much about him, and reveals a man far removed from the fanatical descriptions of his admirers and from the slander of his enemies.

En un intento de encontrar el hombre detrás del personaje, este libro arroja luces sobre la época en que vivió Vespucci y las razones para su desconocimiento por muchos historiadores tradicionales, y revela un Vespucci muy distante del descrito por el fanatismo de sus admiradores o la maledicencia de sus detractores.
