Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. A very good copy in publisher's black cloth with title in gilt on spine. No inscriptions. Map illustrations on endpapers. Page edges browned. 376 pages. Very good illustrated dustwrapper, which is not price-clipped and which is protected in a removable cover. During the author's research poring over yellowing library index cards she was surprised to come across her own name. She was even more surprised to discover that this author, George Collingridge was a relative and that 100 years ago he too had set off in search of his hero, Captain Cook. But it was only when she learnt of Collingridge's own shocking discovery that she realised how intertwined she was with Cook's legacy.

Book
Hardback. Captain Cook was a man making two journeys, one public and one personal, and their success and ultimate cataclysmic failure are intertwined. By the time he "discovered" Australia, the mythology around Cook had set fast. Its strength endured the fractures of an unheroic descent and violent death. Almost 100 years later another man catches a boat to Australia. Like Cook, George Collingridge, aristocrat and artist, is seeking adventure - and like Cook, it proved to be his undoing. His journey leads him to old maps of early explorers, secret tales of hidden lands and buried treasure. It leads him to the real discoverers of Australia - the Portuguese. He stakes his reputation on the claim and loses it; his life is ruined by obsession. A hundred years later, Vanessa Collingridge is searching for books on her hero Captain Cook in a university library. She discovers the name of a distant cousin, George Collingridge, in a dusty card index. Thus a new journey of discovery begins - in the footsteps of her hero and his nemesis. The result is this biography which tells how passion and betrayal unite two men across 100 years and 10,000 miles. Inscription on title page.
