Voyages of the Venetian Brothers, Nicolo and Antonio Zeno, to the Northern Seas, in the XIVth Century

The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made available edited (and sometimes translated) early accounts of exploration. This volume contains the letters of the Zeno brothers (c. 1326-1403), purporting to relate an expedition to America. R. H. Major provides an analysis demonstrating the ingenuity of this fabricated account.
