A Yorkshire farm labourer's son ended up drawing half the Pacific. Kitson follows Cook from the Whitby coal ships through the survey of the St Lawrence to three voyages that fixed New Zealand, the east coast of Australia, the Antarctic ice edge and the northern passage in the world's mind, and then to the beach at Kealakekua where it stopped.
