Vitus Bering (1681-1741) was a Danish-born Russian navigator. He
enlisted in the Russian navy and fought during the Great Northern
War (1700-21) against the Swedish Empire. In 1725 he received a
commission from Peter the Great to discover whether there was a
land bridge between Russia and America. He sailed through what
would later be called the Bering Strait, but was unable to reach
America on this first attempt. He succeeded on his next voyage,
later named the Great Northern Expedition, and set about mapping
significant sections of North American coastline. He also charted
the Arctic coast of Siberia, 'discovered' Japan from the North and
became the first European to explore Alaska. Published in English
translation for the American market in 1889, this sympathetic
biography by the historian and geographer Peter Lauridsen
(1846-1923) had originally appeared in Danish in 1885. It includes
extensive notes and an index.
