If you're fascinated by the intersection of exploration and language, this book is an eye-opener. Wayne Franklin masterfully showcases how the early narratives and descriptions by Columbus, Bradford, and Jefferson, among others, literally wrote America into existence. It's a compelling read for history buffs intrigued by the power of words in shaping our understanding of new territories.
