About

The story of Cook's three historic voyages between 1768 and 1780 is one of the most remarkable in history.

Excerpts from the diaries of Cook and his companions add a direct feeling of history in the making. The illustrations, of which there are thirty-eight in colour and over a hundred in black and white, include many of Cook's maps and charts, plans of the ships, drawings and paintings by Webber, Hodges, Dance and parkinson, among others, and photographs, specially taken for this book, of navigational instruments similar to those used on the voyages.

Illustrated with b&w and colour images.
