About the Book
As early as 1550 BC, the Phoenicians explored and traded throughout the Mediterranean Sea and Asia Minor. A Greek explorer from Marseille, Pytheas (380 – c. 310 BC) was the first to circumnavigate Great Britain, and explore Germany. Between 100 AD-166 AD, Romano-Chinese relations began. Chinese historical texts describe Roman embassies, from a land that they called Daqin. In the 2nd century Roman traders reached Siam, Cambodia, Sumatra, and Java, and by 161 an embassy from the Roman Emperor Antoninus Pius or his successor Marcus Aurelius reached the Chinese Emperor Huan of Han at Luoyang. The Icelandic Viking explorer Leif Ericson (980–1020) reached Newfoundland and the nearby North American coast. On the other side of the world, Polynesians populated and explored most of the central and south Pacific for around 5,000 years, and around 1280 discovered New Zealand. Chinese explorer Wang Dayuan made two major trips by ship to the Indian Ocean. From the early 15th century until the 17th century Europeans discovered and/or explored vast areas of the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. Portugal and Spain dominated the initial period, with other European powers such as England, Netherlands, and France following later.

I was disappointed that Bass did not cover much of his own experience. Those who revere J.W. Powell will be offended. The fact is that Powell's book mixed his two trips as if they were one, and added some fiction. My old friend (now deceased), Dock Marston, had original or copies of everyone's diaries. Pity he never got around to writing his book. For most of us it is enough to know that everyone tended to make themselves the hero at the expense of someone else. Powell should be acclaimed as the driving force. All participants should be acclaimed for their courage and fortitude.Product details
