Tudo come莽ou com uma pergunta: como os povos antigos se locomoviam pelo globo? Quando nove toros de balsa, unidos em uma jangada semelhante 脿s embarca莽玫es pr茅-hist贸ricas utilizadas pelo deus-sol Kon-Tiki, deixaram as costas do Peru em 1947, o noruegu锚s Thor Heyerdahl e seus cinco companheiros, mesmo sem qualquer experi锚ncia em navega莽茫o, tinham uma 煤nica certeza: s贸 o sucesso da travessia que empreendiam explicaria as rela莽玫es pr茅-hist贸ricas entre a Am茅rica e a Polin茅sia. Cento e um dias mais tarde, a 8 mil quil么metros de dist芒ncia, a expedi莽茫o Kon-Tiki encalhou nos recifes do atol de Raroia e provou ao mundo a revolucion谩ria teoria de Heyerdahl. Al茅m disso, mudou a hist贸ria das migra莽玫es no Pac铆fico e deu in铆cio a uma nova era para as explora莽玫es modernas. No livro A expedi莽茫o Kon-Tiki , Thor Heyerdahl relata detalhadamente sua experi锚ncia e cria uma obra-prima de reconstitui莽茫o pr茅-hist贸rica. Mais do que uma grande aventura, a obra de Heyerdahl representa um grande marco da ousadia humana. Tanto que o livro se tornou um cl谩ssico das explora莽玫es modernas e inspirou uma s茅rie de aventuras na segunda metade do s茅culo XX. Atrav茅s de uma narrativa empolgante e surpreendente, Thor Heyerdahl faz com que o leitor entre em contato com os grandes segredos das antigas civiliza莽玫es e viva todas as dificuldades e emo莽玫es de se cruzar um gigantesco oceano em uma embarca莽茫o alheia a qualquer avan莽o tecnol贸gico. A expedi莽茫o Kon-Tiki 茅 uma leitura obrigat贸ria para quem se interessa pelos mist茅rios da Hist贸ria e pelas grandes aventuras da vida real.
