Voyage of the Endeavour : Captain Cook and the discovery of the Pacific
Frost, Alan, 1943-1998
Books
In this volume, the author overturns the familiar idea of Lt James Cook RN. It examines what it meant to sail with Cook, why the Endeavour sought out the mysterious Great South Land, and why the manoeuvrings of the French and Spanish mattered.
