300 ans, à l'époque d'Aristote et d'Alexandre le Grand, un Marseillais intrépide est allé explorer les régions de l'extrême nord de l'Europe, inconnues des peuples de la Méditerranée. À son retour, il a raconté son voyage. Mais son récit a disparu. Seuls quelques rares témoignages ont subsisté jusqu'à nos jours. Ils nous parlent de l'Océan, des étoiles du Grand Nord et de la mystérieuse "Thulé", l'île du bout du monde. Au fil des pages de cet ouvrage accessible à tous, François Herbaux nous entraîne dans un reportage palpitant dans le sillage d'un des plus anciens et des plus grands savants de l'histoire, auteur de découvertes... incroyables". -- 4e de couv.By Robert Atwell. 1998
