Giovanni da Verrazzano
Giovanni da Verrazzano was born in 1485, near Greve in Chianti, Italy. He set out his life at a young age with endless adventures until endless became “End.” He was a settled fine man with plenty of knowledge as he made himself seem.

As they were eaten the rest of crew was forced to watch from the ship for they were too far to try to help without making it on time. Though in the long run he was killed, he added a great deal to the mapmakers of spain on florida, the Bahamas and now the island Guadalupe.
