Les grands navigateurs du XVIIIe siècle by Jules Verne
"Les grands navigateurs du XVIIIe siècle" by Jules Verne is the second volume of a three-part popular science work published in 1879. Written with French geographer Gabriel Marcel, this volume chronicles the great eighteenth-century navigators and explorers who mapped the world's oceans and continents.

age of unprecedented discovery. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
