this is some info from my essay intro... Giovanni Da Verrazano (born in 1485-and died in 1528 approximately) was an Italian Roman Catholic navigator who, in 1524, explored the northeast coast of North America from Cape Fear and North Carolina to Maine while searching for a Northwest Passage to Asia. Verrazano sailed for King Francis I of France. Verrazano's brother, Girolamo Da Verrazano, was a mapmaker who went with Giovanni on his voyage, and mapped the voyage himself.
