In 2003,Paul Chiasson climbed a mountain he never explored on the island wherehe grew up. Cape Breton, one of the oldest points of explorationin the Americas, islittered with remnants of old settlements.The roadhe found that day was unique.Consistently wide and formerlybordered with stone walls, the road had been a major undertaking. For the next two years, he surveyed the history of Europeans in North America, and came to a stunning conclusion: The ruins he came upon did not belong to the Portuguese, French, or English andpre-dated John Cabot's "discovery" of the island in 1497.

評分1-对废墟的挚爱与发掘,和人在重疾之中的绝望与自我救赎,是同频共振的。考古证据的梳理,读来不及作者自述给人的震动。 2-严谨之科学研究,也需要天马行空的驰想。问题关键在“大胆设想,小心求证”。作者对欧洲航海古文献和古地图的梳理,还是细致。 3-中国人发现美洲的可能...
