Classic Exploration Stories
by Stephen Brennan (9781592282852)

It's a seemingly smaller planet we inhabit these days, a world in which there's hardly an unexplored square inch left (or from which you can't surf the World Wide Web or cell-phone a friend). Classic Exploration Stories returns us to a time when there were places still to be discovered, when brave travellers could venture into uncharted regions. Among the sources from which editor Stephen Brennan has selected excerpts for this stirring anthology are: The Voyages of St. Brendan; The Icelandic Sagas; The Travels of Marco Polo; The Voyages of Jacques Cartier; Charles Darwin's Voyage of the Beagle; The Life of Captain Mathew; Flinders; The Perry Expedition To Japan; Edward S. Ellis's The Life of Kit Carson; Mark Twain's The Innocents Abroad; Fridtjof Nansen's Farthest North; Ernest Shackleton's South; Richard Harding Davis's Real Soldiers of Fortune
