Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"The Pacific" is a sweeping historical and maritime exploration of the world's largest ocean, offering a vivid account of its vast history, lore, and the intrepid spirits who sought to master its waters. Stanley Rogers provides a comprehensive look at the Pacific, spanning from the early voyages of discovery to the complex maritime heritage that defines this immense region. The work captures the allure and danger of the high seas, detailing the exploits of explorers, the life of sailors, and the unique cultures of the scattered islands that dot the expanse from the shores of the Americas to the distant reaches of Asia and Oceania.Through detailed narratives and historical insights, Rogers examines the evolution of navigation and the transformative impact of the ocean on global trade and cultural exchange. The book documents stories of shipwrecks, legendary navigators, and the natural wonders of the South Seas.
