The first Russian round-the-world expedition of 1803–1806 in the diaries of Makar Ratmanov
39.99 €
This book presents for the first time the complete diaries of the Nadezhda's first lieutenant, Makar Ivanovich Ratmanov (including the Paris Diary and the second part of the Naval Diary, which are unknown to Russian researchers and are stored in the National Library of France). The publication is accompanied by detailed page-by-page commentary.
Ratmanov's diaries provide a detailed account of all stages of the circumnavigation, shed light on the relationships between the expedition members, and offer a new perspective on the conflict between Captain I.F. Kruzenshtern and Ambassador N.P. Rezanov.
The book features numerous illustrations, most of which were created by expedition members; dozens of color illustrations are published for the first time.
