Small in size but packed with information, this is a lively account of explorers--from prehistoric people who migrated across the continents to astronauts and deep-sea divers. Text and photos are crammed onto each illustrated page, occasionally making it hard to focus. Notable women are mentioned in the appended time line. A list of related websites is included.
