By the 16th century English writer, famous for his Voyages, which provided William Shakespeare and others with material, and was a foundation for the travel literature genre.

Download Description
If you seek the advice herein of such as make profession in cosmography, Ptolemy, the father of geography, and his eldest children, will answer by their maps with a negative, concluding most of the sea within the land, and making an end of the world northward, near the 63rd degree. The same opinion, when learning chiefly flourished, was received in the Romans' time, as by their poets' writings it may appear.
