Captain Cook and the South Pacific (A Horizon Caravel Book) (utgåvan 1963)

In the mid-eighteenth century, before James Cook first sailed from England, much of the world's geography was a mystery.

Foreword: In London's Trafalgar Square stand two naval monuments: one is a towering granite column topped by the statue of Admiral Horatio Nelson, the other is a dramatic, full-figure bronze of Captain James Cook (see page 147).
