Explorers and Exploration series.
Illustrated by
Patrick O'Brien.
These simplified accounts of European explorers are told from a European perspective, though the native peoples they encountered and sometimes conquered are accurately depicted. The texts are generally choppy, but report writers will find them informative. Each book has a clear map, reprints of old color pictures, some new illustrations, a list of key events in the explorer's century, and a time line of important events in his life. Glos., ind.
