About this book
The fourth volume of Richard Hakluyt’s collection gathers English accounts of trade and travel in Muscovy and the northeastern seas, including attempts to find a route eastward. Its records will interest readers of early navigation, diplomacy, and commerce. In one petition, an English representative asks the Russian ruler to send home men accused of harming the merchants’ standing. At sea, crews blocked by heavy ice give up their advance and head toward Vaygatz to consider their next move.
