This is a book of fiction written closely following the actual events and using the style of the Aeneid. It is the story of Vasco da Gama's voyage to Calcutta, India written by an explorer of the next generation of Portuguese mariners. Camoes incorporates the Greek Gods, fantasy islands and several hostilities between the explorers and the Muslim communities they encounter.
