Terra Incognita. Mapping the Antipodes before 1600.

Alfred Hiatt.

A fascinating and well illustrated account of how unknown lands were represented from late antiquity to c.1600; on maps and a variety of texts. This, of course, is the intellectual and cultural background to European voyages of discovery in the Pacific.
