Spanning 450 years of history, Great ExplorationHoaxes tells the spellbinding stories of ten men who pursued gloryat any cost even the truth. Acclaimed author and explorer DavidRoberts delves deeply into the psychology behind the stunt and askswhy these individuals, all of whom were exceptionally able, wouldperpetrate fraud on such a grand and public scale and defend it totheir deaths, even in the face of damning evidence, and why thesedubious achievements are still so hotly debated, often hundreds ofyears afterward.
