Zheng He’s Maritime Voyages 1405-1433 and China’s Relations With the Indian Ocean World: A Multilingual Bibliography (English, Latin and Greek Edition) - Hardcover
Zheng He's Maritime Voyages (1405-1433) and China's Relations with the Indian Ocean World: A Multilingual Bibliography provides a multidisciplinary guide to publications on this great navigator's activities and their impact on Chinese and world history. Admiral Zheng He commanded the fifteenth-century world's largest fleet. In the course of seven voyages made between 1405 and 1433, his massive ships visited over thirty present-day countries in Asia and Africa. Those voyages reflected and reinforced the development of complex networks of trade, migration, cultural exchange, and political interactions between China and the Indian Ocean world.
