('A Voyage Long and Strange' allows us to rediscover the New World again as the author takes us on a thrilling ride through a forgotten chapter of America's founding. What inspired Tony Horwitz to learn more of the past is when he reached middle age, and realized he did not have a grasp on a certain piece of history from Columbus's landing in 1492 until the arrival of English colonists at Jamestown. In this book he uncovers this neglected story. He begins over a thousand years ago with the Vikings, and then tells the dramatic tale of conquistadors, castaways, French voyageurs, Moorish slaves, and many others who roamed and rampaged across half of the present-day area inhabited now by the United States. These forgotten firstcomers sought grapes, gold, converts, a cure for syphilis, and more. And they wrote vividly of what they saw - Zuni pueblos, buffalo plains, the Great Smokies, the Grand Canyon, Atlantic dunes and Pacific fogs, while also leaving an enduring mark on the land and people.)
