Around 1600, Richard Hakluyt sought to honour his nation by publishing a compilation of every document he could find relating to English voyages beyond Europe's boundaries. In a dazzling account of an editorial project seminal to England's encounter with the world and the nation's idea of itself, Fuller unlocks Hakluyt's work for modern readers.
