Since earliest times, men have stepped beyond the horizons accepted placidly by their fellows.
With each step the world has grown larger and so has mans knowledge of himself.
The gripping story of these pathfinders is told in The World Atlas of Exploration
but with a new depth and appreciation. The book also looks at the consequences of discovery.
Where the new land was prepared to accept the presence of man, new nations have been created.
Some, unhappily, have been destroyed. All this the motives, the means, the consequences
is to be found in The World Atlas of Exploration ; 288 pages of text,
illustrations and specially drawn maps, which have been designed to form
self-contained stories in their own right
