After passing Tasmania, New Zealand, and many islands in the South Pacific, the crew sailed north and discovered the Christmas and Hawaiian Islands; onwards to their primary destination, the Northwest Coast of America and the Bering Strait, then returning south along the West Coast to California and back to Hawaii. It was during this second visit to Hawaii that Cook was killed, and the expedition continued under the leadership of Clerke and Gore, who led the crew to the eastern coasts of Siberia, and finally returned to England in 1780. Cook contributed to the advancement of geographical knowledge of the southern hemisphere to a degree that none of his predecessors had been capable of doing. ?He was really the first scientific navigator and his voyages made great contributions to many fields of knowledge" (Hill). Further he states about this work that it is ??an abridgement of Captain Cook?s third voyage? preferred by some readers because, the nautical and technical parts having been deleted, the work reads more like an adventure.? (Hill).Taking over from Strahan and setting out to print the second edition, the present example of Cook?s third voyage, Hughs re-set the text; since, its typography is considered superior. Forbes refers to a book presentation inscription offered to Dr. Elliotson, physician of Mrs. Cook: ".the second edition being much superior to the first both in paper & letterpress." , Size : 4to.
