Story
In the late morning of 29th May 1953, the sun was shining brightly on the roof of the world, a gentle breeze was blowing and two men were there to witness it for the first time ever...their names were Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay and the roof of the world was Everest. This is the breathtaking story of how two very different yet equally determined men battled frost-biting temperatures, tumbling ice rocks, powerful winds and death-defying ridges to climb the world’s highest mountain.

Story
In 2016, Dion Leonard, an ultramarathon runner, stumbled across a little stray dog while competing in a gruelling 155 mile race across the Gobi Desert. The pup earned the name Gobi as she went step for step with Dion, keeping pace with him for nearly 80 miles. What Gobi lacked in size, she made up for in heart. Dion had always focused on winning, but as he witnessed the incredible determination of this small animal, he felt something inside him change.

Story
During the reign of the New Kingdom of Egypt, the boy pharaoh Tutankhamun ruled and died tragically young. In order to send him on his way into the afterlife, his tomb was filled with every treasure he would need after death. And then, it was lost to time, buried in the sands of the Valley of the Kings. His tomb was also said to be cursed. Centuries later, as Egypt-mania gripped Europe, two Brits - a rich earl with a habit for gambling and a disreputable, determined archeologist - worked for years to rediscover and open Tutankhamun's tomb.

Story
Here are the stories of nine great adventures and the lives of the men who took part in them. They pushed back the frontiers of man's knowledge of the world by their vision, courage, and sheer doggedness. They were very different people, from bold adventurers facing the unknown with enjoyment to careful, more scientific individuals. Their journeys are placed within their historical context, but also contain the words of the men themselves.

Story
From the team that created the ALA Notable Book The Cod's Tale comes the fascinating history of salt, which has been the object of wars and revolutions and is vital for life. Based on Mark Kurlansky's critically acclaimed best seller Salt: A World History, this handsome picture book explores every aspect of salt: The many ways it's gathered from the Earth and sea; how ancient emperors in China, Egypt, and Rome used it to keep their subjects happy; why salt was key to the Age of Exploration; what salt meant to the American Revolution; and even how the search for salt eventually led to oil.

"Glaube nur an das, was du siehst.“ Auf diesen Leitsatz seines Vaters sollte Galileo Galilei sein Leben lang vertrauen. Der 1564 in Pisa geborene Physiker, Erfinder und Astronom wird zunächst hoch verehrt. Er entwickelt ein Teleskop, mit dem er unermüdlich den Nachthimmel absucht und Dinge sieht, die vor ihm noch niemand gesehen hat. Doch Galileos neues Weltbild mit der Sonne als Mittelpunkt des Sternensystems ist der Kirche ein Dorn im Auge.

Bereits als kleiner Junge träumt Cristoforo davon, zur See zu fahren und Abenteuer in der Ferne zu erleben. Dass aus dem Sohn eines italienischen Wollwebers tatsächlich der Admiral des Weltmeeres wird, grenzt an ein Wunder. Genau wie das, was er im Herbst 1492 erlebt, als nach einem kräfteraubenden Monat auf dem Atlantik der Ruf "Land in Sicht!" vom Krähennest der Santa Maria herunter schallt: Kolumbus hat zwar keine neue Schiffsroute nach Indien gefunden, sondern einen für die Europäer damals unbekannten Kontinent.

Magellan stach im Jahr 1519 mit seiner Flotte aus fünf Dreimastern in See. Die Fahrt ging ins Ungewisse, sein Ziel: einen westlichen Weg zu den Gewürzinseln zu finden. Drei Jahre später kehrte nur eines der fünf Schiffe zurück, lediglich 18 Mann hatten die Fahrt überlebt. Trotzdem war die Fahrt ein epochaler Triumph: Magellan hatte nicht nur eine Passage zum Pazifischen Ozean gefunden, erstmals war die Welt umsegelt worden. Dies war der praktische Beweis für die Theorie des Astronomen Kopernikus.

Christopher Columbus is one of the most famous explorers of all time, but he was neither the first nor last adventurer to ever stumble upon a great discovery. From the Silk Road of Asia to the icy shores of Antarctica, our knowledge of the world today is in large part due to several intrepid pioneers, risking life and limb for the sake of exploration. After all, setting off into the dark unknown requires an enormous amount of bravery. But every explorer quickly learns that courage and curiosity aren't enough to save you if you can't read a map or trespass on somebody else's land!
