图书简介:
For more than 5,000 years, the sea has challenged, rewarded, and punished the brave sailors who set forth to explore it. This is the remarkable story of those individuals – whether they lived to tell the tale themselves or not. From the early Polynesian seafarers and the fi rst full circumnavigations of the globe, to the explorers picking their way through the coral reefs of the West Indies, this book features awe-inspiring tales of epic sea voyages involving great feats of seamanship, navigation, endurance, and ingenuity. |
