The history of exploration and development of the vast expanses of the world's oceans is a story of courage, enterprise and perseverance. At the center of the large-scale plan of the popular French writer Georges Blon is Man and Sea in their diverse, complex, almost mystical relationship. All great sailors were in a sense prisoners of the sea, which forever conquered their hearts. All of them, starting with the ancient Vikings or Phoenicians, were obsessed with the sea, the dream of new sea routes and unknown lands. About the great conquerors of the great oceans and tells the epic of Georges Blon.
