From Baird Maritime:
James Cook was Britain's and probably the world's most successful and famous maritime explorer. He touched, charted, recorded and even "discovered" parts of all the continents. His twelve years of voyaging touched much of the globe.
This useful little book takes a very interesting approach to the study of Cook's achievements. The question and answer approach breaks the history into easily digestible and memorable chunks. It also includes a very useful bibliography.
A real good summary of the work of Cook. The fact that he did and achieved so much makes it difficult to recall all that Cook contributed to the modern world. This book certainly helps the reader to do so.
