Greatly expanding on his blockbuster 1421, distinguished historian Gavin Menzies uncovers the complete untold history of how mankind came to the Americas - offering new revelations and a radical rethinking of the accepted historical record in Who Discovered America?

The iconoclastic historian's magnum opus, Who Discovered America? calls into question our understanding of how the American continents were settled, shedding new light on the well-known "discoveries" of European explorers, including Christopher Columbus. In Who Discovered America? he combines meticulous research and an adventurer's spirit to reveal astounding new evidence of an ancient Asian seagoing tradition - most notably the Chinese - that dates as far back as 130,000 years ago.

Menzies offers a revolutionary new alternative to the "Beringia" theory of how humans crossed a land bridge connecting Asia and North America during the last Ice Age, and provides a wealth of staggering claims, that hold fascinating and astonishing implications for the history of mankind.

The world all over is rediscovering history as we know it. Mainstream archaeologists cant admit they are wrong. The only topic of Marco Polo is dubious, since the Kubli court has no record of a ventian. Interesting and highly believable, only time will tell.

Keep an open mind. This author has many references to collaborate his hypothesis. I wish I had time to dig deeper into them but I just wanted to keep listening. I feel like my history classes were a waste of time.

Fascinating if true. You want to believe it but many don't. Might as well read about who killed JFK. Too many facts that you can't immediately verify. Check WIKI before you read it.

another is that really true book

These details make history interesting, showing it isn’t a dead topic, but an ongoing debate. The author spent a lot of his own money on travel and research, resulting in a very interesting book.

Narration was good except for the many foreign words the narrator mangled beyond all recognition. I guess they wanted to stick with a British accent, but there are plenty of brits who can pronounce the foreign words better. Narrator would be great for an all English topic.

Great details and story, narrator cannot pronounce key foreign words

The research is overwhelming in its accuracy and scholarship. it is time to match history instruction to what actually happened.

outstanding real history of the world

Loved this book. Opened my archeological/historical mind, first love though amateur. Will be reading and following on audio again. So much to absorb. My question is why has the main stream professionals been so adamant to keep this knowledge in the closet. Looks like people like Gavin are shaking up minds too locked into the status quo despite clear evidence.

Very Enlightening Book

thrilling

there has been years of research put into this writing. not just someones opinion. and if your into real research you must get this book. todays science is " if it does not fit the theory it cannot be" but every six months or so the educated that write history get educated.

a must have

You really need to read his first books to get the most out of this. The evidence is wide and compelling. I only missed not having access to the maps and pictures. Audible could have put these in as a pdf.

Compelling information

1421 was a riveting story so I had high hopes for this one but there was so much data if a compelling narrative was there it drowned in waves of information.

Like reading an appendix
