The stories told here of explorers and expeditions from the earliest times ancient Egypt and the Phoenicians to the present, with the experience of fascination and danger that they represent, contain all the elements necessary to capture the reader's imagination. Farrington (an author and journalist) is adept at telling these stories, which are directed at the lay reader, relating the personal and larger context that caused people to travel beyond their known world.
