Captain Cook is a biography of the famous British explorer and navigator, James Cook, written by the renowned British author, Walter Besant. The book was first published in 1894 and is considered one of the most comprehensive and authoritative accounts of Cook’s life and achievements. The book covers Cook’s early life as a sailor, his rise through the ranks of the Royal Navy, and his legendary voyages of discovery to the Pacific, where he charted new territories and made contact with indigenous peoples. Besant also explores Cook’s personal life, his relationships with his crew and family, and his tragic death in Hawaii. The book is well-researched and provides a detailed account of Cook’s expeditions, including his encounters with the Maori of New Zealand, the Aboriginal people of Australia, and the inhabitants of the Hawaiian Islands. Captain Cook is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of exploration and the life of one of the greatest explorers of all time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
