WHO DISCOVERED AMERICA? THE UNTOLD HISTORY OF THE PEOPLING OF THE AMERICAS
MENZIES, GAVIN
Building on the startling revelations of his bestseller 1421, iconoclastic historian Gavin Menzies calls into
question our understanding of how the American continents were settled, shedding new light on the wellknown
“discoveries” of European explorers, including Christopher Columbus. In Who Discovered
America? he combines meticulous research and an adventurer’s spirit to reveal astounding new
evidence of an ancient seagoing tradition that dates as far back as 130,000 years ago. Menzies offers a
revolutionary new alternative to the “Beringia” theory of how humans crossed a land bridge connecting
Asia and North America during the last Ice Age, and provides a wealth of staggering claims.
