About this ebook

In the era of the great geographic discoveries, the greatest countries of the world competed for the right to set their rule on the newly discovered territories. Virtus Bering was one of the heroic explorers into the north of the Russian Siberia, who, thanks to the acknowledgment of Sir James Cook, is considered the pioneer of the Bering Strait. Vitus Bering (1681-1741) was a Danish cartographer and explorer who served Russia as an officer in the Russian Navy and later as the lead in two major efforts by Russia to explore the Arctic and eastern limits of the Asian continent to determine if Asia was connected to America by a land bridge. This book gives a detailed account of his life and world-famous expeditions.
