The late Samuel Eliot Morison was one of the most eminent American
historians of the 20th century. The Great Explorers, an abridgement
of his two-volume magnum opus, The European Discovery of America,
vividly describes the early voyages that led to the discovery of
the New World. Based on Morison's own trips, by plane, to the
places the early discoverers landed, and on massive research into
their maps, travelogues, and means of navigation, it tells, as no
other book does, what the experience of these early explorers was.
Morison describes their fear of sailing uncharted waters, their
encounters with natives, their joy-and surprise-at discovering new
land, and enriches his story with the photographs and maps he made
while retracing the great voyages.
