With the help of Cook's own journals, Martin Dugard - himself a noted adventurer - weaves all the events of Cook's life into an adventure narrative or rare insight and excitement. Dugard chronicles the whole of Cooks's life, from his youth on the family farm to his apprenticeship at sea and on through his illustrious years in the Royal Navy. 'Farther Than Any Man' brings to life the sights, sounds, and suspense of all of Cook's expeditions.
