'An absorbing story' SALMAN RUSHDIE
'Rich, vivid and gripping' GUARDIAN
'Feels at once historical and contemporary' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

In 1527, hundreds of settlers arrived on the coast of modern-day Florida and claimed the region for Spain. Within a year of navigational errors, disease, starvation and fierce resistance from indigenous tribes, only four survivors remained. Three were nobleman, whose stories found their way into the official record. The fourth was known only as Estebanico, a vibrant merchant from Barbary forced into slavery and a new name, reborn as the first African explorer of the Americas.

This is his story: a journey across the great swathes of the New World, where would-be conquerors are transformed into humble servants, fearful outcasts into healers, and the silenced into storytellers.©2023 Laila Lalami (P)2023 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc
