Description
Captain Cook is the greatest explorer-seaman of all time, yet the world has had to wait almost two centuries of the first full-scale biography to do justice to the man and his achievements. Professor J. C. Beaglehole, the leading authority on the Pacific exploration, devoted himself for many years to the editing of Cook’s copious Journals, a monument of scholarship in four massive volumes, and the Journal of Joseph Banks who accompanied Cook on the Endeavour.
