Enjoy The Book of Discovery
The Book of Discovery
By Ray Howgego
Translated from English by Michael Haupt
They were adventurers, pioneers, merchants, and missionaries who ventured into unknown territories and dared to travel into the unknown. Most journeys had a specific purpose; research voyages for the sake of knowledge were the exception until the beginning of the 20th century.
Ray Howgego takes the reader on a journey through the history of geographical discovery. He reports on ventures such as the search for the legendary Land of Punt, Marco Polo's experiences in China, the seven voyages of Admiral Zheng He, Magellan's circumnavigation of the globe, Samuel and Florence Baker's expeditions to the sources of the Nile, the voyage of the Beagle, Wally Herbert's 1969 trans-Arctic expedition, and many others. The volume collects a total of 150 influential and unusual voyages of discovery in chronological order. Each journey is presented in its historical context, recording the people and motives, as well as the (often harsh) circumstances and conditions. The volume is richly illustrated with contemporary maps, paintings, and photographs.
- From pole to pole: The history of geographical discovery
- A comprehensive overview: 150 voyages of discovery from 1470 B.C. to the 20th century
- Illustrated with numerous large-format illustrations and maps
About the author:
Ray Howgego himself undertook countless journeys that took him back to the most remote places in the world. His passionate interest in voyages of discovery and explorers is already reflected in the four-volume Encyclopedia of Exploration, which is considered a standard work worldwide.
