房龙地理.太平洋的故事-(英文原版) 内容简介
太平洋是世界上*浩瀚、辽阔的大洋，它给予人类的不仅是湛蓝的、深不可测的景观或者具有摧毁性威力的风暴，而且还有无数宝藏和资源。房龙以其深厚的学养和语言功底，将几百年来航海家们的伟大功绩娓娓道来，告诉我们太平洋的一个又一个奥秘是怎样被发现的，不但充满了绮丽的异国情调，而且蕴涵着丰富的人生哲理。 本书中，作者以新的视野讲述了发现太平洋的历史过程：从巴拿马地峡到静静的达连山，从波利尼西亚人对太平洋*早发现到麦哲伦等人的航海之旅，从新大陆探险的狂热到由此引发的造成数万欧洲人破产的大骗局，从复活节岛上的奇迹到《鲁滨逊漂流记》主人公原型的真实生活……。简洁优美的文字，再配上房龙亲手绘制的插图，将给你的阅读带来无穷乐趣。
本书为英文原版。

房龙地理.太平洋的故事-(英文原版) 作者简介
房龙（Hendrik Willem Van Loon，1882-1944），荷裔美国著名通俗历史学家。善于用轻巧俏皮的文字，撰写历史、文化、文明、科学等方面的通俗历史著作。向人类的无知与偏执挑战，将知识与真理普及为人所共知的常识。一生中出版了三十余种书籍，单枪匹马地将人类各方面的历史几乎全都复述一遍。其中《宽容》、《人类的故事》、《房龙地理》（即《人类的家园》）等畅销著作，影响了几代人。 郁达夫曾说，房龙的笔有一种魔力，干燥无味的科学常识经他那么一写，无论大人小孩，读他书的人都觉得娓娓忘倦了。
