Event Description
“In 14 hundred and 92, Columbus sailed the ocean blue”. Columbus’s journey to the Americas, was one of those key points in world history, but his journey was neither the longest, nor the most epic undertaken in the pre-industrial age. This talk will reveal a host of forgotten, yet, amazing explorers, and adventurers, who driven by that indomitable human curiosity would take them to places thousands of miles away from their homes at great cost to themselves.
