About this title:

Synopsis: In Cook's relatively short and adventurous life (1728-79) he voyaged to the eastern and western sea boards of North America, the North and South Pacific and the Arctic and Antarctic bringing about a new comprehension of the world's geography and its people's. He was the linking figure between the grey speculation of the early eighteenth century and the industrial age of the first half of the nineteenth century. Richard Hough's biography is full of new insights and interpretations of one of the world's greatest mariners.

About the Author: Richard Hough with his high reputation as a biographer and naval historian, is the author of many books. He wrote THE MURDER OF CAPTAIN COOK in 1979 to mark the bicentenary of the explorer's death in that year.
