Discover the epic history of human exploration and migration, and the stories of fearless pioneers the world over, with this stunning tour of history - map by map.

The voyages of history’s greatest explorers – from Zheng He to Ibn Battuta and Marco Polo – are brought to vivid life with accompanying photos, illustrations, and original artefacts, along with recent missions to chart the depths of the oceans and the surface of Mars.
Specially commissioned maps show the key driving factors of each journey, and why certain routes were chosen over others – whether due to climate, terrain, or territory – while stunning contemporary examples offer fascinating insights into the unique world-views and political motivations of the people who commissioned them, and the cartographers who created them.
Written and authenticated by a diverse team of experts from around the world, and publishing in the style of the Map by Map series, with 500,000+ copies sold worldwide.
