Historia Navigationis Martini Forbisseri is a historical account of the voyages of Martin Frobisher, an English seaman and explorer who embarked on three expeditions to the Arctic in the late 16th century in search of the fabled Northwest Passage. The book was written in Latin by Dionyse Settle and published in 1675.The book begins with a brief biography of Frobisher and his early life, before delving into the details of his voyages. Settle describes Frobisher's encounters with the native Inuit people, his attempts to establish a settlement on Baffin Island, and his search for gold and other precious metals.The book also includes numerous maps and illustrations, as well as accounts of the hardships and dangers faced by Frobisher and his crew, including harsh weather, disease, and mutiny.Overall, Historia Navigationis Martini Forbisseri provides a fascinating insight into the early exploration of the Arctic and the challenges faced by those who sought to chart new territories and expand the boundaries of human knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
