Synopsis
In 1767, 11-year-old Nicholas Young stowed away on Captain James Cook's Endeavour. Cook's three-year mission was secret: He was charged by the British Navy to search for a lost continent, believed to be located between the southern tip of South America and New Zealand. Nick's journal charts the voyage, with every port of call a new adventure. He befriends a native of Tahiti, taken aboard the Endeavour, is enlisted as an Able Seaman, and becomes the surgeon';s assistant. Here is one of the great voyages of discovery seen through the eyes of a boy who was actually there.
