Bantam Books, USA, 2003. Medium Trade Paperback. Very Good. Medium Trade Paperback. 650 pages. *** PUBLISHING DETAILS: Bantam Books, USA, 2003. *** CONDITION: This book is in very good condition. More specifically: . Pages are lightly tanned. *** ABOUT THIS BOOK: On 8 March 1421, the largest fleet the world had ever seen set sail from China. The ships, some nearly five hundred feet long, were under the command of Emperor Zhu Di's loyal eunuch admirals. Their mission was 'to proceed all the way to the end of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the seas' and unite the world in Confucian harmony. Their journey would last for over two years and take them around the globe. But by the time the fleet returned home, Zhu Di had lost control and China was beginning its long, self-imposed isolation from the world it had so recently embraced. And so these great ships rotted at their moorings and the records of their extraordinary journey were destroyed. And with them, the…

Reprint. *** CONDITION: This book is in good condition. More specifically: Covers have light creasing. Spine is uncreased. . Edges of pages are lightly browned. Pages are reasonably tanned. *** ABOUT THIS BOOK: Never before or since has there been an experiment quite as bold as this. Set against the backdrop of Georgian England with its peculiar mix of elegance, prosperity, progress and squalor, the story of the First Fleet is one of courage, short-sightedness, tragedy but above all of extraordinary resilience. It is also, of course, the story of the very first European Australians, reluctant pioneers who travelled into the unknown - the vast majority against their will - in order to form a colony by order of the King's government. Separated from loved ones and travelling in cramped conditions for the months-long journey to…
