ABOUT
Second, limited edition transcribing a lecture on Captain Cook by Cook's editor and biographer, J.C. Beaglehole.
The Death of Captain Cook was written for a presidential address to an historical gathering. Beaglehole at that time was working on his edition of Cook's Journals and had reached the third voyage; had reached the point where, inescapably, he must set down the facts and circumstances of Cook's dramatic but miserable end. Here follow the events of 14th February 1779 at Kealakekua Bay.
