London, Collins first edition - h/c in d.j. 'In presenting it as Cook's own writing, I am conscious of having taken a great liberty, ' he says. 'But it has been done as a labour of love and in an honest endeavour to set right the impression left by the official Journals. Cook was neither a dull man, nor unemotional and inhuman. He could not have been, or he would not have achieved what he did.' 218 x 140mm., pp. 254, co. map end/p., p.o.i. (neat) ffep., contents small stain outside edge, in d.j. chips top/bottom spine & corners, cantered, g+. ISBN: 0002214458
