Pervoprokhodtsy. Russkie imena na karte Evrazii - Tsiporukha Mikhail Isaakovich

In the 17th and 19th centuries, dozens and hundreds of new names associated with the names of Russian travelers appeared on geographical maps. Russian navigators, explorers and naturalists have discovered various natural objects in the Arctic Ocean, Siberia and the Far East, Central and Central Asia: islands and peninsulas, bays and straits, rivers and lakes, mountain peaks and Ranges. The book tells the story of those researchers whose names are rarely remembered, and many of them are unjustly forgotten or almost forgotten. However, the activities of these pioneers were aimed at the benefit of the country and contributed to the development of national and world science.
