CAPTAIN COOK

Who could ever have imagined what travels young James Cook would undertake. Life, at first, had seemed to offer him few opportunities. Find out how circumstances led him to a life on the seas and how his wife viewed this arrangement. Pack your seasick-remedies for an adventure that will take you to unknown worlds - unknown, that is, in Cook's time. Read how his crews were among the healthiest, and then learn why. Discover the differences in navigation and seamanship between the European tradition and that of the Polynesians and Micronesians. So, get your sea-legs ready and let's sail!
