I have a particular interest in pre-Columbian contact between Asia and the Americas, and I've written a blog post on the topic:
Secret Maps of the Ancient World
For those of you interested in Chinese exploration of the Americas before Columbus and before Zheng He, here is a list of books on the subject:
The Asiatic Fathers of America
Secret Maps of the Ancient World
Gods from the Far East
Columbus was Chinese
The Island of Seven Cities: Where the Chinese Settled When They Discovered America
1421: The Year China Discovered America
1434: The Year a Magnificent Chinese Fleet Sailed to Italy and Ignited the Renaissance
Who Discovered America? The Untold History of the Peopling of the Americas 
Nu Sun: Asian-American Voyages, 500 B.C.Although not a book about Chinese exploration of the Americas, When China Ruled the Seas is an excellent book on Zheng He and the Treasure Fleet.
