Later biography

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

There is a more recent major biography (2017), which is highly regarded by nautical historian acquaintances (though outside my field), apparently drawing on newly available family material and other previous overlooked sources. No doubt this will help interested editors improve this article.

based on a essay and using science of history, Joshua is the first captain ( not the same that a captain of the army) on history to do a circunnavigation. David Dourado Fernandez (talk) 14:00, 24 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
