I. N OVUS O RBIS I MAGES OF THE N EW W ORLD This section of the exhibition shows the evolving geographic views of North America—from the first maps to represent the New World as continents to the beginning of French exploration in the Mississippi Valley. When Europeans learned of the immense new continents that blocked their way to Asia, they did not abandon hope of finding a direct passage to the Orient. Geographic thinking shifted to the possibility that the new land masses could either be bypassed altogether, passed through via straits, or traversed on short overland routes. Vasco Núñez de Balboa found such a land route in Central America when he crossed the isthmus of Panama to the “Southern Sea”—in 1513. In 1524 Giovanni da Verrazano, a Florentine employed by the king of France to find a passage to the Pacific Ocean, mistook the large body of water to the west of the Outer Banks of North Carolina for the Pacific Ocean. The map by Sebastian Münster ( Item 2 ) shows this false “Sea of Verrazano.”—Nearly a century later, John Farrer’s 1652 map of Virginia, which located the Pacific Ocean just over the Blue Ridge, confirmed the persistence of this yearning to find an easy route to Asia (see Item 6 By the 1600s, hope for a Panama-like isthmus crossing in North America faded. Moreover, once the Spanish gained control of the southern sea routes, French and English efforts to reach Asia shifted northward in the quest to find a Northwest Passage. Seamen from several generations—including Jacques Cartier, Martin Frobisher, Henry Hudson, Samuel de Champlain, and others—searched for this route across the continent. These explorers made several discoveries of “passages”—which were later proven false or nonviable, but their efforts added the St. Lawrence River, the Great Lakes and the Hudson Bay to the maps of North America. All of the maps in this section show some form of Northwest Passage. The quest to find this route persisted until Captain James Cook finally disproved the existence of the Northwest Passage in 1778.

Unknown Shore: The Lost History of England's Arctic Colony By Robert Ruby. Reviewed by Russell A. Potter In December of 1858, a Cincinnati engraver and sometime newspaper publisher by the name of Charles Francis Hall took a brief stroll from his shop on West Fourth Street. A few doors down, at Smith and Nixon's Hall, the printed bills in the window advertised the appearance of a "moving panorama" of the Arctic Regions. Judging from a notice Hall published in his Cincinnati Occasional , the narrator of the panorama had a hard time being heard over the crowds of schoolchildren in attendance; while praising the panorama, Hall decried the noise: "For the credit of children of Cincinnati, all shouts and noise, during their attendance, should cease." Yet despite the disruptions, Hall was apparently very deeply impressed as the "perilous adventures, wonderful discoveries, and singular phenomena witnessed by Dr. Kane and his brave companions" in the "frozen regions" scrolled before his view. Within six months,the hitherto quite settled Mr. Hall began making preparations to sell his business and equip an expedition of his own to the Arctic, the first of three such voyages which would encompass more than a decade, establishing Hall as the leading American polar explorer of his day.

Their knowledge of nature — they imagined a narwhal tusk to be a "sea unicorne" horn and tested it as an antidote to poison — wasn’t much better than their knowledge of geography. Frobisher thought the bay that would someday bear his name was actually a strait with Asia on one side and North America on the other. His grasp of metallurgy was so weak, he may have actually believed the worthless black rocks he collected near Baffin Island were full of gold. But he was encouraged by the supposed promise of the black rocks he found on the "Meta Incognita" or unknown land. He hooked up with assayers or metal testers who were willing to back up his claims that the rocks he found actually were rich in gold.
