Captain Cook: Voyager Between Two Worlds par John Gascoigne

This is a clearly written biography that sets forth not only the events of Captain Cook's life, but also the context in which he lived it. It is not a chatty biography, and it does not contain details that would give a reader a sense of Cook's private thoughts or inner life. This is not a weakness, just an observation.
