I read this a few years back. Awesome read. Magellan and expedition were full of hardy badass mofos. The portion of the book where they navigate the coast of South America and find their way through the Strait of Magellan and encounter Patagonian giants was fantastic! Magellan didn’t actually finish the circumnavigation, he died in a battle with islanders in the pacific.
I would suggest this book to anyone looking for some high adventure.
