Tko je to? pustolovi i istraživači

Christine Schulz-Reiss

The book features famous people who often went to their limits in order to discover and explore new things. Their life path is fascinating, their courage and zeal are still admirable today.

You will already know many of the names, while others you may only get to know from reading. The life stories of the persons presented in this book are arranged chronologically. They start around the year 1000 and stretch all the way to the present. Each resume begins with a short riddle about the person or an adventure they experienced. No name was revealed in it. With the riddle, you can check your own knowledge, or the knowledge of your friends, by asking the question: Who is that?
