Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Voyages of Delusion in the Age of Reason: Williamsâ s book charts the 18th-centuryâ s perilous and often fatal attempts to discover a passage through the Arctic to the Pacific. An astounding work of the history of arctic exploration. Glyn Williamsâ s Prize of All the Oceans was reviewed by Patrick Oâ Brian: â A remarkably erudite and deeply informed bookâ . And by Andrew Roberts as â Staggeringly goodâ ¦ the best book Iâ ve read in ages.â The Quest for the North-West Passage should be as big a best-seller as Fergus Flemingâ s Barrowâ s Boysâ "which was about the quest for the north-west passage in the 19th century. Williamsâ s book is set in the heat of 18th century exploration fever and charts the many perilous expeditions undertaken to find the â maritime philosopherâ s stoneâ from amongst the ice and eskimos of Hudson Bay. Fuelled by the promise of fame and riches from revitalised British trade and dominance of the North American continent, the search for this illusory passage even captivated Cookâ "the most pragmatic of explorers. Williams examines successive expeditions from James Knight to George Vancouver. The secretive Hudsonâ s Bay Company plays a supporting role throughout, as does Sir Arthur Dobbs whose political ambitionâ "and obsessive pursuit of the illusory passageâ "relied heavily on exploitative cunning, personal greed and putting otherâ s lives at risk. The book is based on extensive archival research and archaeological excavations which fuel the content of the book, rich in political and personal intrigue. Written with the narrative brilliance and the mastery of form which characterises The Prize of all the Oceans, this book promises to be both a work of historical excellence and a compelling story of daring adventure, survival and endurance at sea. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
