Features: The desire to explore what lies on the other side of the sea has driven humans since ancient times to listen to the call from afar, braving difficulties and setting sail. The motivations for navigation are diverse, with the majority of European navigators seeking to "dig for treasure" in distant lands across the sea. This book begins with Hanno over two thousand years ago, describing famous navigators from various eras and placing them in the development of human maritime history in chronological order, presenting readers with a continuous scroll of maritime exploration and geographical discovery.
