“Nothing develops the mind like traveling,” said Emile Zola, realizing that few sensations can compare with the discovery of unknown corners, far and near, on our Earth.
Throughout the history of mankind, travelers have been considered heroes, wanderers who leave their usual way of life and go into the unknown. The desire for the far horizon, for the unknown, is at the core of human nature, and the most successful - or most adventurous - attempts to conquer the unknown distances are invariably included in the list of greatest achievements. Whether it was a prehistoric native on a flimsy ship, an ancient navigator, a medieval merchant, an enlightened seventeenth-century humanist, or a polar explorer of the twentieth century, they all made up a cohort of great wanderers striving into the unknown. Their stories, memories and lives are examples of the highest manifestation of human capabilities and the human spirit. The Great Journeys series is a way to get acquainted with the stories of many great geographers, discoverers and explorers, learn more about their lives, experiences and accomplishments.
