Description
Subtitled: Performed in His Majesty’s Ships the ‘Resolution’ and ‘Adventure’, in the years 1772, 1773, 1774, and 1775
These two volumes constitute the facsimile (reprint of the 1777 original) published by the Libraries Board of South Australia in 1970 (Australiana Facsimile Editions No. 191). Containing numerous full-page, double-page and fold-out plates, this is a beautiful production of the official report on Cook’s Second Voyage.
This particular copy has an unfortunate stain on the spine of Vol 1 which detracts from the overall appearance but will save you $100 (we have another set for $550).
