Nicht nur die Chronik der wichtigsten 50 Seegefechte, sondern auch die Positionskarte mit den 68 bedeutendsten historischen Wracks in der Ostsee dürften das Herz jedes Schiffsliebhabers höher schlagen lassen. Zum Teil bisher unveröffentlichte Karten, Gemälde, Drucke und Zeichnungen illustrieren die Bedeutung einer Region, deren Handelsbeziehungen weit nach Europa hineinreichten.Die 2000-jährige Geschichte der Ostsee und ihrer Anrainerstaaten - Highlights zu Nautik, Seeschlachten, Wikinger und Hanse - Einmaliges Bildmaterial aus Archiven, Museen und Bibliotheken - Erstveröffentlichungen aus der privaten Sammlung der finnischen John-Nurminen-Stiftung.

Inscription on the fly-leaf. The Northeast Passage, the sea route from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, has captured men's imaginations throughout the ages, It was believed that the route through Siberian waters was a short cut to the riches of China, though the sailing conditions were in fact insuperably difficult. Seafarers put their lives at stake when they embarked for the icy Arctic Ocean in their little sailing vessels,' either for abundant catches or in the hope of discovering new lands. The Arctic regions were still but little known in the mid-19th century. The task of increasing knowledge entailed hardship and suffering such as we cannot easily imagine in this era of icebreakers, airplanes and satellites. The history of Arctic exploration is a fascinating tale of man's struggle to expand his environment, It is both geographical history and the history of seafaring and methods of sailing. This book gathers together our knowledge of seafaring and charting in northern seas from early days to the end of the 19th century. In addition to richly illustrated articles by experts, a rare selection of maps of the same periods has been assembled showing the development of the picture of the Northeast Passage given by maps. The Northeast Passage book is a diverse package of information, in which the bulk of the mapping material is taken from A.E. Nordenskiold's world-famous map collection in the Helsinki University Library. In 1878 80 the Finnish-born Nordenskiöld was the first explorer ever to sail through the Northeast Passage, and he enriched our knowledge of Arctic conditions in many other ways. The book is an act of homage to his lifework.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. The North preserved its secrets for long. The ancient Greeks called the remote and extreme north 'Thule'. The Arctic zone was the last on earth for man to explore and chart. Ultima Thule narrates the 2500 year long history of explorations of the northern areas from Pytheas to Peary, from antiquity through the Vikings and the great journeys of exploration to the conquest of the North Pole. The unknown North is described through the daring adventures of such early sailors as Erik the Red, Barents and Bering or explorers of the wilds like Chelyuskin and Franklin. The journeys of the great scientific explorers - Cook, Nordenskiöld and Amudsen - remind the reader of the bravery of those who set their sights towards the uncharted North. With 260 unique illustrations of excellent quality, Ultima Thule - Arctic Explorations provides an indispensable survey and source of information on the discovering of the extreme North. Ultima Thule also recounts the history of northern cartography and navigation; how the mythical north gradually took shape on maps, to become part of the European world picture. For the first time this book studies broadly - with the aid of unpublished drawings and charts - Arctic expeditions from both East and West. Richly illustrated book published alongside the exhibition in Tennis Palace, Helsinki on 17.10.2001-30.3.2002. Text in English. 349 pp.…
