Famous Voyages & Explorers Books

The history of exploration is largely a history of voyages. This collection covers the sailors, navigators and expeditions that opened up the world, from early ocean crossings to Cook's Pacific voyages, the race to the poles and modern solo circumnavigations.

Alongside accounts of individual voyages, you will find broader histories of ocean exploration, books on the development of navigation, and stories of the women and lesser-known figures who shaped maritime discovery. Titles range from serious scholarship to readable adventure narratives.
