<p>This book explores Adam Johann von Krusenstern's work in the service of the Russian Empire in broadening knowledge of the world's oceans. It focuses primarily on the hydrography and geography of the Pacific Ocean in the first half of the nineteenth century; this work resulted in the <em>Atlas of the Pacific Ocean</em>, a leading hydrographic study.</p> <p>This volume explores Krusenstern's biography, scientific legacy and international networks, highlighting his contribution to hydrographical sciences. His life provides an entry point into a wider assessment of the role of Baltic German explorers originating from the Governorate of Estonia who left a significant mark on global maritime, geographic and scientific history, yet have been relatively unacknowledged in scholarship. This book highlights Adam Johann von Krusenstern's contribution as a leading Baltic German maritime and scientific figure and sheds new light into connections with his Russian and European counterparts.</p>
