<br/><br/>  Menzies contends that a massive Chinese fleet under Zheng He circumnavigated the globe around 1421, reaching the Americas and other continents decades before Columbus. The book presents claims of Chinese maps, wreckage artifacts, and Eurasian crop transmissions, although it has been highly criticized for weak evidence and questionable methods .
