Trade, exploration and conquest all belong to the story, alongside the practical skills that made long passages possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book ranges from early ocean voyagers to the expeditions associated with figures such as Columbus, Cook and Bering. Navigation, endurance and ingenuity give these journeys their human interest, while the wider historical view helps explain how travel by sea changed the world. Previously published as The Conquest of the Ocean, this is a useful starting point for readers who want an accessible introduction to maritime history before exploring particular ships, periods or navigators in greater depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brian Lavery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull title:\u003c\/strong\u003e A Short History of Seafaring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dorling Kindersley Ltd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780241379691\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 02\/05\/2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied to order, subject to availability.
