Biography of Captain James Cook

I am excited to journey with Captain James Cook (October 27, 1728 - February 14, 1779).

I have discovered that Captain James Cook was born in a simple mud hut in Yorkshire and he was the first English explorer to map the East coast of Australia.  He made three journeys across the Pacific Ocean.  I am about to follow one amazing journey with Captain Cook on his ship called the Endeavour which began in 1768 from England to Botany Bay, New South Wales.
