A landmark work by the UK's only Aztec historian that shatters our previous Eurocentric understanding of the Age of Discovery by exploring how the great civilisations of the Americas - the Aztecs, Maya, Totonacs, Inuit and others - discovered Europe
'An untold story of colonial history, both epic and intimate, and a thrilling revelation' Adam Rutherford
'Mind-blowing . this is how history should be told' Benjamin Zephaniah
In this groundbreaking new history, Caroline Dodds Pennock recovers the long-marginalised stories of the Indigenous Americans who - as enslaved people, diplomats, explorers, servants and traders - left a profound impact on European civilisation in the 'Age of Discovery'. On Savage Shores is a sweeping account of power and influence in America and Europe - one which could forever change the way we understand our global history.
