Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from John Williams: The Shipbuilder
The sailors took these things as a matter of course, because to be with Captain Cook was to expect adventure as surely as they looked for the sunrise. When their eyes rested on their commander, with his strong clean-shaven face under the three-cornered hat, the keen glance that had seen everything except fear, their faces showed that they were ready to go to the ends of the earth with him.
