The Voyage Of The "challenger.": The Atlantic

This classic work of oceanography describes the pioneering research expedition of the HMS Challenger, which circumnavigated the globe in the 1870s. Led by the Scottish biologist and oceanographer Sir Charles Wyville Thomson, the expedition made extensive measurements and observations of the physical and biological properties of the world's oceans, laying the foundation for modern marine science. With vivid descriptions of the challenges and discoveries of the voyage, this book provides a rich account of one of the greatest scientific expeditions of all time.
