Synopsis
When Cook sailed for Tahiti in 1768 in the Endeavour,on the first of his three voyages to the Pacific, he was instructed by the Admiralty to employ himself whenever possible `surveying and making Charts, and taking Views ofBays, Harbours and Parts of the Coast as may be useful to Navigation.' The majority of this material has, until now, remained unpublished. This volume contains a full descriptive and illustrated catalgoue comprising all the charts and coastal views produced aboard tbe Endeavour and their related engravings, together with the small number of drawings made on the voyage of the Endeavourand her boats. The introduction includes a synopsisof the voyage, an appraisal of surveying methods, and biographical sketches; a descriptive inventory lists all the items catalogued according to their present location.
