The book also provides insights into the political and economic climate of Europe during the 16th century, including the rivalry between England and other European powers for control of trade routes and resources. Additionally, it sheds light on the early history of the Muscovy Company and its role in shaping English-Russian relations.Overall, Chancellor?s Voyage to Muscovy is a valuable historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the early days of European exploration and trade, as well as the complex political and economic dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
