Edward J. Goodman is Emeritus Professor of History at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. He says of The Explorers of South America, “It is the story of the brave and the foolhardy, the saints and the scoundrels, the learned and the unlettered, the aristocrats and the lowborn—the men who for four and a half centuries have explored the ‘green continent.'”
"Goodman has diligently mined the sources and had done his best to bring order out of the vas 400-year spectacle, and to open the way for further study of the exploits of a truly interesting array of personalities."
