Vast Horizons by Mary Seymour Lucas is a historical narrative that explores the expansion of trade and exploration from the medieval world through the early age of discovery.

The book traces major developments such as the Crusades, the rise of the Mongols, early missionary routes, advances in shipbuilding and navigation, and the opening of sea routes around Africa, with particular attention to Portuguese exploration and the global trade networks that followed.

Written for younger readers but grounded in solid historical scholarship, it presents a broad view of how commerce, exploration, and cultural exchange reshaped the known world.

Copyright 1943 by Mary Seymour Lucas, published by The Viking Press in New York. This is an ex-library hardcover with library stamps, labels, and a due date card and pocket affixed to the endpapers.
