THE ATLAS OF NORTH AMERICAN EXPLORATION: From the Norse Voyages to the Race to the Pole

For more than 500 years, explorers roamed the wilderness of North America, some in search of a route to the East or fabled cities of gold, others seeking the glossy pelts of the beaver or souls to convert. From the early voyages of Norse seafarers to the grueling 20th century race to the North Pole, this great adventure is captured here. Photos, many in color.
