Descubrimiento del río de las Amazonas
'Descubrimiento del río de las Amazonas' Summary
A mediados del siglo XVI, una expedición española encabezada por Francisco de Orellana se adentra en la selva amazónica en busca del mítico País de la Canela y El Dorado. El viaje, que duró siete meses y recorrió 4.800 kilómetros, estuvo lleno de dificultades y privaciones. Sin embargo, la expedición logró explorar y cartografiar el curso del río Amazonas, que hasta entonces era desconocido para los europeos. El relato del viaje, escrito por el cronista dominico Gaspar de Carvajal, es un testimonio invaluable de la exploración y el descubrimiento de uno de los ríos más grandes del mundo.Book Details
