Sea of Glory: America's Voyage of Discovery, the U.S. Exploring Expedition, 1838-1842
by
Nathaniel Philbrick
About this title: In this maritime history, Philbrick recreates the ambitious scientific excursion of 1838--the U.S. Exploring Expedition--whose mission was to chart the Pacific and collect samples of life forms. Highly successful in scientific terms, it became controversial because of the loss of ships and men, and resulted in a court-martial. Though almost forgotten by history, this expedition is seen by Philbrick to be as important as the expedition of Lewis and Clark. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.

Description: Very Good. 0142004839 Clean, tight and unmarked. Spine is creased. From Publishers Weekly After chronicling the sinking of the whale Essex in In the Heart of the Sea, Philbrick attempts to rescue from obscurity the U.S. Exploring Expedition's 1838-1842 circumnavigation of the world and its cartographic and scientific accomplishments.
