Full of sharp observations and well-chosen detail, this fast-moving account of Cook's first voyage was published anonymously in 1771, within months of the expedition's return. The author's intelligent interpretations of his exotic environments, and fascination with social anthropology and language, make his anonymity all the more intriguing.
