Description
1794 Voyages of Captain James Cook Australia New Zealand Hawaii Pacific Berenger



“Remember, the greater the opportunity, the fewer are those who see it.”

– James Cook



James Cook was an 18th-century British explorer known for his three major world voyages. The third Pacific voyage, which began in 1776, took Cook and his crew around New Zealand and Hawaii. On this trip, Cook became well acquainted with the King of Hawaii, Kalani-opu’u. After spending time in the South Pacific, Cook also took his ship northward to the Aleutian Islands reaching to the Arctic Circle. Cook eventually died upon his return to Hawaii, after angering the King of Hawaii.



This three-volume French edition is an abridged description of each of the three Cook voyages. Published in 1796, collected and edited by Jean-Pierre Berenger.
