Notes

Description
There is a compulsion which drives men and women to chart the unknown. That an explorer's existence is austere, laborious, and dangerous is often dismissed when explorers and exploration are discussed. The book is considered with both, but not only in the usual geographical sense, but also in an ecological sense, as undersea and space exploration are ... explored. Vivid and immensely readable, the books unfolds a vast narrative with the excitement and romantic aura that have always characterized exploration and explorers.
