Cuyvers graduated from University of Delaware with master's and doctoral degrees. He took an interest in writing and filming on topics related to the sea. That led to a number of television presentations and accompanying books on the oceans. Setting Sail:10,000 Years of Seafaring Adventure includes a four-part television series that aired on The Discovery Channel's high definition network and is available in a colorful book published by Tide-Mark Press of Windsor, Conn. The series and book tell the story of humankind's quest to cross the seas, examining the subject from a variety of cultural perspectives and providing fresh insights on the history of ocean travel. Setting Sail is unique for its multicultural approach to the history of sailing ships. The book looks first at the early Polynesian explorers who covered thousands of nautical miles, then turns its attention to the sailors of China and the Middle East before discussing the era of sail in Europe that resulted in the extension of Western economic and political power around the globe. Cuyvers says he hopes the book will help people "take a broader view, gain an appreciation for other cultures and a develop a fascination for how different peoples sometimes found different solutions to the same problem." Setting Sail tells the 10,000 year story of mankind's quest to cross the world's oceans. It is a remarkable saga that moves from island to island, between nations, and eventually across continents as peoples share skills and technologies that advance their sailing skills. The book accompanies a four part television program that is slated to air on Discovery Channel stations during 2004. A DVD of the television program is included with the purchase of this book. Author Luc Cuyvers looks first into prehistory and the Polynesian diaspora that began before the Christian era. At a time when most sailors refused to venture beyond the sight of land, Polynesians were the first "bluewater" adventures, exploring the western Pacific Ocean across an area greater than twice the size of the American continent. Setting Sail considers the advances and techniques that allowed Arab traders to pursue the first oceangoing trade routes. By 750 A.D., for example, Arab traders regularly sailed to India, Ceylon, and onward as far as China and Korea. Seven centuries later, new centers of exploration were stirring. The Chinese began to travel on voyages of discovery and Portugal's Prince Henry the Navigator sponsored the first of many voyages that would change Europe's understanding of the maritime world. The story Setting Sail tells is fascinating and visually exciting. The text is supplemented with more than 100 color photographs of places, people, and ships that illustrate the story of ocean exploration. First North American Edition [stated]. Presumed first printing.

Geel Stadsbestuur 2000 Gebonden, linnen band met blindstempel, 402pp., 23.5x31cm., geïllustreerd in kleur en z/w., in goede staat (band met zeer lichte sporen van gebruik, verder zeer goed). Dit boek is een cultuur- en stadsgeschiedenis van de gemeente Geel (België) over de periode 1500 tot 2000. Het richt zich op de mensen die in Geel woonden, werkten of het aanzien van de plaats op één of andere manier bepaalden: kerkleiders, burgemeesters, ambachtslieden, landmeters, geesteszieken, onderwijzers, artsen, monumentenbouwers, mijnwerkers en anderen - elk verbeeld als representant van hun tijd. Door biografische portretten, thematische artikelen en historische achtergrondinformatie schetst het boek de evolutie van Geel doorheen vijf eeuwen: van ontginning van heide, middeleeuwse ontginningen, kerk- en gasthuiszorg, industriële ontwikkeling, tot het heden. Het werk is rijk geïllustreerd en stelt de lokale gemeenschap in verband met bredere sociale, economische en culturele tendensen in Vlaanderen en België.
