43. Quest for the Spice Islands

Conquistadors Bartolomeu Dias and Vasco da Gama lead the European search for the Spice Islands during the Age of Discovery; an unrelenting quest for the riches of the Orient, sailing into uncharted waters, conquering territory, opening trade routes, and bringing colonialism to much of the world, including the North American continent. Guest podcaster Charles Kimball of the «History of Southeast Asia» shares his views on the daring feats of these celebrated adventurers!
