Summary

Captain James Cook was a British explorer, navigator, cartographer, and captain in the Royal Navy whose three major voyages of exploration between 1768 and 1779 greatly expanded European knowledge of the Pacific region. His detailed maps, scientific observations, and interactions with indigenous peoples left a profound impact on geography, ethnography, and natural history. He left an indelible mark on the region, and in the end, it also killed him.
