Age of Discovery

During the Age of Discovery many explorers voyaged from Europe in the quest for a shortcut to Asia. Christopher Columbus, the first of these men, thought he had accomplished the goal, little knowing he had encountered a new continent. His exploits launched the voyages of discoveries that featured men like John Cabot, Henry Hudson and John White. The New World Discoverers tells the stories of many of these explorers of the new world in what would become Colonial America. History remembers these men as they engaged in their quest of New World Exploration.
