Hmmmmm...



When I think explorers, I think Ponce de Leon. Then Vasco da Gama. Then, and only then, Christopher Columbus. Others, such as Henry the Navigator or Henry Hudson barely register. And when registered it is done dismissively. This is interesting. In much of my life, I'm a veritable Anglophile. However, when it comes to the age of exploration, I seem to be an Anglophobe.

A head scratcher, ain't it?
