Cook - Rob Mundle
This book chronicles Cook's three epic voyages across the Pacific Ocean, during which he mapped vast uncharted territories, encountered Indigenous peoples, and made groundbreaking scientific discoveries. Mundle vividly portrays Cook's leadership, seamanship, and relentless curiosity, while also examining the challenges, dangers, and controversies of his expeditions—including his violent death in Hawaii in 1779.
Blending adventure, history, and maritime expertise, Mundle provides an engaging account of Cook's life, his contributions to exploration, and his complex legacy in the age of European expansion. The book is ideal for readers interested in naval history, exploration, and the Age of Discovery.
