A New Voyage Round The World - Book Review
December 18, 2007 by TheSailingChannel.TV | Language: EN Play Time: 00:04:35 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
TheSailingChannel.TV uses historic images and classical music to bring to life its review of A New Voyage Round The World by William Dampier. First published in 1697, a new edition makes this little known classic available to the modern reader. Providing the inspiration for Robinson Crusoe and Gulliver’s Travels, William Dampier was the forefather of the English narrative. Pirate, explorer and naturalist, Dampier provides one of the earliest and most eloquent accounts of discovery and piracy on the high seas with keen observations of people, places, and nature. Dampier circled the globe three times, wrote of the wildlife and flora of the Galapagos 150 years before Darwin, visited Australia close to 80 years before Cook, and his innovations in navigational technology were studied by Cook and Nelson. A New Voyage Round the World provides a rare and exciting glimpse into life on the ocean at a time when a true map of the world did not yet exist.
