This was a good book. As other reviewers have mentioned, the maps are very useful and so should have been located in a better place. The story itself if fascinating, but it starts off quite slowly and takes a while to get rolling. If you are going to choose one book by Philbrick, read Sea of Glory. It is a better all-around book and more interesting because of the obscure topic.
