More about the book

"The great question remains. Where our Victorian coasts visited by three Portuguese caravels in 1522?"This book presents perhaps the most detailed comparative analysis yet undertaken of the mystery of the Mahogany Ship. Did Portuguese navigators discover the east coast of Australia 250 years before Cook? The experts disagree. Hard evidence may lie buried beneath the sand dunes near Warrnambool, Victoria. For many years researchers have hunted for the wreck and other tangible evidence of early European exploration of our east coast. Historic and cartographic evidence, field research and techniques of maritime archaeology are all included here in a fascinating series of papers.
