Copertina di Andrew Vietze: Zheng He (PDF)

This engaging resource takes learners back in time to 1405, when the Chinese emperor sent the world’s largest fleet of ships to explore the "Western Oceans." Zheng He was at the helm of the expedition, a man who rose from poverty to captain China’s famous Treasure Fleet on an adventure covering more than thirty-five thousand miles. Little known in the West, Zheng He was one of history’s most important explorers. Readers will learn how Zheng He brought Chinese technology to remote ports of call, changing every place he explored.
