Krátky popis
Cook's great voyages marked the end of an era in world history. As
he sailed into Hawaii in January 1778 he made contact with the last
of the human civilizations to grow up independently of the rest of
the world. But equally for the Polynesians and Melanesians of the
Pacific, Cook's arrival in their midst merely marked a further (if
disastrous) twist in diverse histories already many centuries old.
In this immensely enjoyable and absorbing book Cook's journeys are
reimagined, attempting toleave behind (or master) our later
preoccupations to let us see what Cook and his associates
experienced and what the societies he encountered experienced -
from the Beothuks of Newfoundland to the Tongans of the Friendly
Islands.
