Krátký popis

Published in 1773, this three-volume work proved a bestseller in its day. Taken from journals and including Cook's first voyage to the southern hemisphere, these are the accounts of leading British navigators. Later taken aboard the Beagle with Darwin, this work still speaks to scholars and students of nautical exploration.
