The Golden Hind and the Tello on the Coasts of California
For 400 years, no clear picture has existed of the movements of the Golden Hind in that sector of Drake's great voyage which passed north of Mexico to Oregon. The log and charts of the ship and Drake's own account of the circumnavigation were put away in the Tower of London for secrecy and have never come to light. Even Fletcher's account of the voyage had this California sector suppressed and the short summary paragraph substituted was unfortuna…

The Date of Juan de la Cosa's World Map and Its Implications for American Discovery
The world map of Juan de la Cosa has been a cartographic yardstick by which to assess those American coasts discovered by 1500. In recent years attempts have been made to give it a later date?even as late as 1529. This paper, admitting that La Cosa did not draw the map, and that it is, as G. R. Crone noted, an assemblage of maps, suggests that the considerable error made in the latitude ofthe coasts and islands ofthe Caribbean means that it canno…

A navegação de Fernão de Magalhães
Se a viagem de Fernão de Magalhães tivesse conseguido acrescentar as Molucas ao mundo espanhol, a história da Amé-rica do Sul teria sido bem diferente. A Argentina, a Patagô-nia e o Chile dominariam uma grande rota espanhola para a Ásia e as Ilhas, das Especiarias. Teriam sido o centro principal do esfôrço espanhol no Novo Mundo . Entretanto, o império espanhol localizando-se a Oeste e tendo como centro o Méxi-co, deixou a América do Sul largamen…

The "Miraculous" Discovery of South America by Columbus
T I IHE third voyage of Columbus, in I498, has never been critically examined, though it was the most peculiar and ineffective of his four voyages of discovery. The source account of it is Columbus' letter to the Spanish sovereigns sent in October, I498, which seems to have been takenl from his day-by-day journal of the voyage. This journal was transcribed by Bishop Las Casas,' and all quotations in the present study are from Jane's translation2 …

Geographical Factors in the Invasion and Battle of Normandy
HE invasion of Normandy, on June 6, 1944, was one of the outstanding successes of the war. By risking the Channel crossing in a half gale, the Allies unexpectedly achieved a complete surprise. However, had there been no surprise, the invasion would still have succeeded; for the Germans were faced with the impossible military task of holding more than a thousand miles of coast with a total strength no greater than that of the invading forces which…
