The Dragon's Admiral and the Greatest Fleets in History: Zheng He (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A eunuch who commanded an empire. A diplomat who sailed to the ends of the known world.

Before Columbus, before da Gama, there was Zheng He. From the tumultuous court of the Ming Dynasty, this brilliant and enigmatic admiral led seven epic voyages across the Western Oceans. Commanding a fleet of colossal Treasure Ships, he established diplomatic relations, navigated complex trade networks, and extended China's influence from Southeast Asia to the shores of East Africa. His missions were a testament to the nation's technological genius and a grand vision of a connected world.

But his legacy was nearly lost to history. This is the definitive story of a boy who became a legend, a master sailor in a society that turned its back on the sea, and a historical enigma whose life continues to challenge our understanding of global history. Approx.160 pages, 34000 word count
