Den engelske opdagelsesrejsende James Cooks (1728-1779) dagbog fra hans første rejse til Sydhavet

The following is a journal written by James Cook, a British explorer, navigator, cartographer, and captain in the British Royal Navy, famous for his three voyages in the Pacific Ocean and to New Zealand and Australia in particular. He made detailed maps of Newfoundland prior to making three voyages to the Pacific, during which he achieved the first recorded European contact with the eastern coastline of Australia and the Hawaiian Islands, and the first recorded circumnavigation of New Zealand.
