A new interpretation of Cook's life and death by a great historian of marine exploration, arguing that the circumstances and reporting of his death are key to his reputation. It examines how his initial favourable status as a hero was gradually undermined over the years into an anti-hero and destructive invader. 'The narrative is gripping' }Evening Standard{
