The Voyage of the Matthew: John Cabot & the Discovery of North America
by Peter Firstbrook

In 1497, the first Europeans set foot on the North American mainland and claimed it for the English crown. Led by John Cabot, a small band of hardy sailors had braved the stormy, uncharted seas of the North Atlantic in a single, three-masted sailing ship. On the 500th anniversary of his discovery, another crew of intrepid sailors set out to make the same journey, in a replica of Cabot's ship. The Voyage of the Matthew is a mix of 15th century natural science and the best contemporary technology with spies, political intrigue, and the intense competition of early exploration.
