520 |a Between Two Worlds is a story teeming with people on the move, making decisions, indulging or resisting their desires and dreams.

All, in their own way, were adventurers, risking their lives and fortunes to make something of themselves overseas. They irrevocably changed the land and Indigenous peoples they encountered - and their new world changed them. But that was on.
