{"product_id":"the-furthest-shore-william-eisler-9780521392686","title":"The Furthest Shore","description":"The mysterious Great Southland, or Terra Australis, captured the European imagination for centuries before it became a documented fact. This book traces the history of pictorial imagery associated with the search for the \"Fifth Continent\"--paintings, handcolored maps, drawings, etchings, tapestries and artifacts--which are discussed in the context of the link between art and exploration. Beautifully illustrated with Portuguese, Spanish, French, Dutch and English images, this book is an exciting visual account of the construction of Terra Australis in the European imagination and as scientific fact.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Eisler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521392683\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521392686\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.12h x 8.58w x 0.79d","brand":"William Eisler","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47422119641343,"sku":"9780521392686","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fd55ca7-00c3-4e6e-b981-6ecadd1689a6.jpg?v=1761527440","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-furthest-shore-william-eisler-9780521392686","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
