The Illustrated Atlas of Exploration reveals all the adventure, risk, and history of first endeavours - from the small ship excursions of ancient times to the modern day challenges of exploration under the sea and into space. Across time people have gone beyond the known boundaries to seek new experiences, find new land and test their theories. This atlas brings together their stories in a richly graphic way. Maps, timelines, illustrations & photographs all contribute to make this book an authoritative reference and compelling read.
