A Fairytale of Navigation

You hold in your hands a full-fledged encyclopedia dedicated to navigation. Here is the history of shipbuilding development (from rafts to icebreakers and submarines), stories about maps, maritime discoveries, great navigators and pirates, about the faithful assistants of sailors – the compass, log, sextant, and chronometer. Moreover, about legends and books where heroes swim interestingly, using rather unusual means for this purpose... Illustrations by Igor Oleinikov adorn every page of this beautifully crafted book, blown by sea winds and imbued with love for the sea.
