Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. "Spice and the Devil's Cave" is a captivating historical novel set in the vibrant, high-stakes world of late 15th-century Lisbon. During a pivotal moment in the Age of Discovery, the city is a hive of intrigue and ambition as explorers and merchants alike seek a sea route to the legendary spice lands of the East. The narrative follows the efforts of a group of individuals, including the great navigator Vasco da Gama and the banker Bartholomew Marchioni, as they strive to overcome the perils of the unknown and the machinations of rivals determined to protect their monopolies.The story masterfully blends historical fact with compelling fiction, illustrating the immense courage required to navigate the treacherous waters around the tip of Africa, known ominously as the "Devil's Cave." Through its vivid portrayal of the maritime traditions, scientific advancements, and geopolitical tensions of the era, the work offers a rich window into the dawn of global trade.
