Today it is difficult to imagine how mysterious and dangerous the ocean seemed to the ancient sailors. They went into the unknown, looking for magical islands and mysterious continents, risking their own lives and forever changing the fate of the native inhabitants of the lands they discovered. But what drove these people, and how did they imagine the world "on the other side of the planet"? Perhaps somewhere across the ocean lies the Great Southern Continent, where the "antipodes" or "dogheads" live? Or are the legendary islands of the biblical King Solomon hidden there, full of incredible riches?
John Dunmore's book "Chasing a Dream" is a short and vivid account of the discovery of the Pacific Ocean and the imaginary world of the people whose courage, intelligence and desperation made the world more understandable and allowed us to draw the modern world map. Naval officers and audacious pirates, sincere defenders of the Christian faith and self-interested traders, writers and scientists - all of them made a significant contribution to the development of the Pacific Ocean and debunking the many fictions that have captivated the human mind for many centuries.
The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
