From Ferdinand Magellan's historic 1519 voyage to Jenny Graham's extraordinary feat of endurance cycling around the world in 2018, the challenge and mystique of circumnavigating the globe has inspired countless people to take their own trips around the world.

Whether it's by boat, bike or balloon, we'll introduce you to each mode of travel and regale readers with amazing tales of the travelers who used each method for their circumnavigation. You'll discover the details of each circumnavigation with illustrations, infographics, period photography and foldout maps.
