The story of the exploration and development of the vast expanses of the world's oceans is a story of courage, enterprise and perseverance. In the center of the large-scale plot of the popular French writer Georges Blon - Man and the Sea in their diverse, complex, almost mystical relationship. All great seafarers were in a sense prisoners of the sea, which forever conquered their hearts: no matter how terrible hardships would turn out to be a sea voyage, they every time again rushed towards the formidable element, towards new dangers and discoveries. Columbus, Magellan, Heyerdahl - all of them, like the ancient Vikings or Phoenicians before them, were obsessed with the sea, the dream of new sea routes and unknown lands. On the great conquerors of the great oceans and tells the sea epic Georges Blon. In this edition, stories about the three greatest oceans of the globe - the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian - are illustrated with reproductions of paintings, engravings, maps, photographs - historical images, in one way or another related to the fascinating stories of Georges Blon. In addition, the book is provided with extensive reference material, including maps, dictionaries of names, nautical terms, and names of ships and aircraft.
