Excerpt from Circumnavigation of the Globe, and Progress of Maritime Discovery From the Earliest Period to the Present Time There are few subjects that have to such an extent attracted the attention and gratified the curiosity of mankind, in all ages, as the narratives that have been given to the world of the voyages and adventures of distinguished navigators. The description of foreign and distant lands, and of the strange and diversified races that inhabit them, is calculated to produce in the minds of young and old an impression as powerful as any that can be called forth by the most highly wrought tales of fiction. This may be accounted for, partly from the novelty and striking nature of the scenes described, and partly from the air of truthful ness that pervades most narratives of the kind, which carries along with it the sober judgment as well as the admiration of the reader.

Despite earlier naval expeditions undertaken for reasons of diplomacy or trade, it wasn't until the early 1400s that European maritime explorers established sea routes through most of the globe's inhabited regions, uniting a divided earth into a single system of navigation. From the early Portuguese and Spanish quests for gold and glory, to later scientific explorations of land and culture, this new understanding of the world's geography created global trade, built empires, defined taste and alliances of power, and began the journey toward the cultural, political, and economic globalization in which we live today. Ronald Love's engaging narrative chapters guide the reader from Marco Polo's exploration of the Mongol empire to Ferdinand Magellan's circumnavigation of the globe, the search for a Northern Passage, Henry Hudson's voyage to Greenland, the discovery of Tahiti, the perils of scurvy, mutiny, and warring empires, and the eventual extension of Western influence into almost every corner of the globe. Biographies and primary documents round out the work.
