Publisher's Synopsis
From the dawn of civilization, mankind has been inspired to explore and discover the world around him. This atlas, with its beautiful illustrations and wealth of information and interesting facts, is the perfect companion to the previous project: 'Great Explorers' Atlas'. This is a new and fascinating voyage following in the footsteps of 18 great and courageous women who travelled and explored the world over the past few centuries, most of whom forgotten about by history: from Amelia Earhart to Isabelle Bird, from Freya Stark to Laura Dekker.
