Ten Men of Resolution by Joan Spedding. Christian Resource Centre

Not Available

A fascinating account of the stories of ten men who accompanied Captain Cook on the H.M.S Resolution at various times on his explorations. The lives and careers of the men who sailed with Cook were much influenced by their association with him, but at the same time, his own personality was developed by the quality of the men who accompanied him, and their subsequent actions frequently enhanced his own stature. There was an amazing interplay of personalities connected with the Cook voyages which became woven into the fabric of history for many decades to follow.
