Journeys at Sea

by Horatio Morpurgo

Description

A compelling portrait of the Age of Discovery and its relevance to us today. Morpurgo argues taht even after four centuries, the modern world has not come to terms with the first shock of planetary awareness. He asks how our abusive relationship with the natural world began, and asks what insights we might learn from the great Elizabethan navigators to help us grasp the current environmental crisis.
