Description:
Basic Books , 2006. Hardcover. Like New/Fine. 6x1x9. What gave Christopher Columbus the confidence in 1492 to set out across the Atlantic Ocean? What persuaded the king and queen of Spain to commission the voyage? It would be convenient to believe that Columbus and his men were uniquely courageous. A more reasonable explanation, however, is that Columbus was heir to a body of knowledge about seas and ships acquired at great cost over many centuries. Fish on Friday tells a new story of the discovery of America. In Brian Fagan's view, that discovery is the product of the long sweep of history: the spread of Christianity and the radical cultural changes it brought to Europe, the interaction of economic necessity with a changing climate, and generations of unknown fishermen who explored the North Atlantic in the centuries before Columbus. The Church's tradition of not eating meats on holy days created a vast market for fish that could not be fully satisfied by fish farms, better boats, or new… Read More

USA: Basic Books, 2006. First Edition. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7. Hard Back First Printing, Hardcover Book and Dust Jacket As New. Fine gold and green binding, gilt titles, clean and unmarked; soundly bound, square with sharp corners. Internals pristine. "Fish of Friday" is a new story of the discovery of America. In Brian Fagan's view, that discovery was the product of the long sweep of history, the spread of Christianity and the radical cultural change it brought to Europe, the interaction of economic necessity with a changing climate, and generations of unknown fishermen who explored the North Atlantic in the centuries before Columbus. Not eating meat on Fridays, a Church tradition, the climate change that caused diminished fish stocks off Norway and Iceland and therefore exploration further afield for more fish--all contributed to the 'discovery' of America.

Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered.; 8vo 8"" - 9"" tall; 338 pages; From the world's leading writer on archaeology, a new theory of how climate, technology and the rituals of the medieval Christian Church are combined to bring Europeans to the New World.
