It was the largest exploration expedition in history. For ten years, thousands of men pushed across Siberia by sled, sailed frozen Arctic seas, and reached the shores of America — all to answer one question: where does Russia end?
Vitus Bering and Alexei Chirikov led the maritime teams. They mapped the Arctic coastline from the White Sea to the Pacific. They sailed into the strait that now bears Bering's name. They touched the coast of Alaska and proved what geographers had only guessed — Asia and America were separate continents.
But the expedition demanded a terrible price. Bering died of scurvy on a desolate island within sight of Kamchatka. Dozens of his men perished beside him. What they achieved cost them everything.
This account is drawn from expedition logs, reports submitted to the Russian Admiralty, journals of surviving officers, and records preserved in Russian imperial archives.
