A major part of the book is devoted to a re-analysis of the cartographical materials and to an attempt to present a more logical interpretation of this material. In the course of this attempt the work discusses and rejects previously widely held viewpoints concerning the early exploration of North America and the development of North American cartography. A new hypothesis is presented in this respect and is shown to fit the available evidence more adequately. The study also reconsiders the documentary materials deriving from the Cartier voyages and develops new conclusions concerning their origin, particularly with respect to the so-called \"Cartier vocabularies.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a pioneer summary\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53187732668759,"sku":"9781487591748","price":25.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/cabot-to-cartier-9781487591748","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
