In the 14th century, Nicolo and Antonio Zen journeyed from Venice up the North Atlantic, encountering warrior princes, fighting savage natives and, just possibly, reaching the New World a full century before Columbus. For centuries, the brothers were international celebrities, until, in 1835, the story was denounced as a 'tissue of lies' and the Zens faded into oblivion.
But was it a hoax? And what if these Venetian navigators really did make their incredible journey? Following in their footsteps, Andrea di Robilant sets out to discover the truth about the Zen voyages.
