Books, Manuscripts
Great explorers have one thing in common - a desire to leap into the unknown, no matter how dangerous that might be. From Ferdinand Magellan's first circumnavigation of the world 500 years ago to Barbara Hillary's treks to the North and South poles while in her seventies, 'Explorers' documents the trials and hardships of the men and women who rewrote our understanding of the world, and showed us what humans are capable of.
