Tentang eBook ini

Navigation Records explores how ancient civilizations navigated the seas, connecting cultures and shaping global interactions. It delves into early exploration by examining ancient maps, maritime logs, and travel accounts. Discover how celestial navigation and dead reckoning were employed without modern technology, and understand the socio-economic drivers behind hazardous voyages of discovery.

The book reveals that the evolution of navigation was more than just technological advancement; it was driven by economic needs, political ambitions, and cultural curiosity. For instance, the voyages of Zheng He and Polynesian migrations illustrate the global reach achieved through pre-modern navigation techniques.

Structured in three parts, Navigation Records first analyzes early mapping and navigation methods. It then examines specific voyages using primary sources, and concludes by analyzing the consequences, including global trade and cultural exchange. This approach offers a detailed view of maritime history and its impact.
