George Finkel brings the Age of Exploration vividly to life, detailing Tasman's landmark journeys under the Dutch East India Company that led to the European discovery of present-day Tasmania, New Zealand, Tonga, and Fiji. Written with an adventurous and accessible tone, the narrative captures the hardships, dangers, and triumphs of life at sea during one of history's most ambitious eras of maritime discovery. Finkel presents Tasman not merely as a historical figure but as a bold, complex man driven by curiosity and duty, making this an inspiring portrait of one of exploration's most underappreciated pioneers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839385055451,"sku":"2026770002035-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d08c14b9-d2bb-47cb-b847-6e3354a4def9.png?v=1780561215","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770002035-secondhand-the-dutchman-bold-the-story-of-abel-tasman","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
