Captain Cook's Voyages Round The World is a historical book written by James Cook, a British explorer, navigator, and cartographer. The book was first published in 1897 and is a detailed account of Cook's three voyages around the world. The first voyage, which took place between 1768 and 1771, was aimed at observing the transit of Venus and exploring the South Pacific. The second voyage, between 1772 and 1775, was focused on exploring the Southern Ocean and discovering new lands, while the third voyage, between 1776 and 1779, aimed to find a passage through the Arctic to the Pacific. The book provides a comprehensive account of the voyages, including detailed descriptions of the lands, people, and cultures that Cook encountered. It also includes maps and illustrations of the places visited by Cook, as well as his observations on the flora and fauna of the regions he explored. Captain Cook's Voyages Round The World is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the exploration and discovery of the world by European explorers in the 18th century.
