I have it. It's very very speculative to say the least.

It came out in England and they created a bestseller out of
it by making it very controversial.
CNN has an article up about it.

There's a website where one can list your findings--

Something along these lines a few years back was a
work that said that the Japanese made it to North America
and they were responsible for the Zuni's use of certain native symbols.

One thing that we found very funny about 1421
was the one map that shows the treasure ships sailing
up around the north of Greenland and also along the
Northern coast of Russia along the Arctic Coastline.

 One review on amazon calls it "lightly footnoted, heavily speculative".
