Utrera (Sevilla), finales del siglo XVI. Pascual de Zubileta, un joven que sueña con parecerse a su abuelo navegante, siente la llamada del Nuevo Continente seducido por los cautivadores relatos que escucha en el taller familiar tan cercano al «Puerto de las Maravillas». A bordo del galeón San Tadeo, llega a una Nueva España gobernada desde El Escorial en plena construcción, donde se enfrenta al devastador cocoliztli, un hecho que la Historia ha permitido velar e incluso olvidar. La mirada limpia de Pascual sobre un siglo con cambios tan trascendentales nos permitirá replantear ciertos episodios de la Historia. Que cada cual sea libre de interpretarlos a su manera. Pascual, una persona en constante lucha interna y con afán de superación, nos irá descubriendo una buena forma de lograr su propósito en América. Este viaje iniciado en 1575 nos retará a revisar los valores individuales, las habilidades organizativas y a profundizar en la forma de llevar a cabo la gestión de un galeón o la de aquellos inmensos territorios hermanados para siempre. Una luz de esperanza para el mundo actual, un libro para lectores inquietos.
