Title: Sea of Glory
Description: Harper lONDON. 2005, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0007121164) Card Cover , 20 Cm. "Sea of Glory is a treasure of a book - a spacious sea story, first rate history and a chronicle of the lengths men will go to, the messes they can get into and out of, all in the quest of knowledge. Or of glory, or for self-aggrandizement or for the plain love of adventure. It is the remarkable and thrilling tale of a surprisingly little known 19th century naval voyage that explored vast tracts of the Pacific Ocean including a new southern continent soon to be named Antarctica. Excellent.
