Description
In 1490s Portugal, Abel Zakuto, a Jewish banker with a keen interest in mapmaking and sea navigation, encourages explorers Magellan, da Gama, and Diaz to find the elusive sea route around the "Devil's Cave"--the Cape of Good Hope--to India, which would enable Portugal to dominate the spice trade.
