### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A Trying, but Rewarding, Read
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2002*

There is no doubt that this is the definitive biography of the renowned Captain Cook.  For no other reason, persons with an interest in the greatest navigator of all time should read this work.  While few details of his life outside of his three major expeditions have been retained, this book brings to life the Captain that sailed the world on his three voyages, including his personality, his foibles, his leadership, and his intellect.  He was indeed a man with many admirable qualities.So why only three stars?  While the book is well researched and well organized, it is not well written.  Far too often, a jumble of words is presented as a substitute for a sentence.  If Beaglehole could write clearly, this would certainly be a 5 star work.  On the other hand, sadly enough, a clear writing style has not always been the hallmark of a professional historian.

    What a different period of time.....
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2013*

I worked for the Captain Cook Inn and desired to read about how it came to be named. This book took me on adventures totally imaginable. It will open your eyes to the trials these Seaman experienced, their hardships, ship disciplines and the total havoc reeked by scurvy. I highly recommend this well written book.

    Esoteric
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2015*

I base my three star review from the point of view of a reader not a historian. I chose this book because I enjoyed "Farther Than Any Man" by Martin Dugard. "The Life of Captain James Cook" has so much  menutiae, that, for me, it lost all thrill and my interest.  If Beaglehole had the ability of Stephan Ambrose to condense Lewis and Clark's journals, which I tried to read, into "Undaunted Courage", which I have read twice, this would probably be a wonderful read.
