It is one of the anomalies of human history that despite our passion for knowledge, we are still in doubt as to who actually "discovered" the North American continent. According to author/historian Fredrick J. Pohl, the glory should go to none other than Prince Henry Sinclair, Earl of Orkney, who set off on a voyage of discovery for "a very great country" and dropped anchor in Guysborough Harbour, Nova Scotia, on June 2, 1398 almost a century before Columbus's and Cabot's Historic voyages.
