These three fiction books are very good. They're about people sailing in ships to explore Earth during the late fifteenth century.

1418. As this century of discovery opens, Prince Henry of Portugal is putting his wealth into a search for a fabulous lost island somewhere west of Africa. On this daring voyage a fisherman's son will witness both miracles and despair on a perilous, dark sea. Young Alessandro Cavalli of Venice will also meet his fate on the watery deep after a brother's betrayal leaves him chained to an oar as a galley slave. And teenaged apprentice Tom of Bristol is running for his life when he stows away on an ocean-bound ship...as the magnificent adventure of exploration begins with The Dreamers.
Thanks. Always looking for something to read either for me or someone in my family. We are a family of readers. This looks like something we all might enjoy especially the boys.
