Title: Români pe șapte continente
Description: I've read the book at about sixth or seventh grade. It's a documentary of Romanian travellers around the world. Stories happening at different times but mostly around 1900. I'd love to re-read it now both for myself and my kids. It's in the romantic storytelling of Jules Verne, in the verbal and awe-inspiring, only with real characters and events. A book worth living.
