«1421. El año en que China descubrió el mundo» is the historical essay by Gavin Menzies, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (592 pages).
Gavin Menzies argues that a Chinese fleet, under the command of Admiral Zheng He, explored and mapped the world long before the Europeans. The author gathers evidence and analysis to reconstruct the expedition begun in 1421, a hidden chapter in the history of global exploration.
The Spanish edition appeared in October 2003 and the title is classified within the History category.
Intended for those who enjoy the history of exploration and theories that question the official account of the great discoveries.
Rowan Gavin Paton Menzies was a British submarine lieutenant-commander who authored books claiming that the Chinese sailed to America before Columbus. Historians have rejected Menzies' theories and assertions and have categorised his work as pseudohistory.
