Cook’s Cook The Cook who Cooked for Captain Cook by Gavin Bishop The 1768 journey of James Cook’s Endeavour to the South Paci c, told through the eyes of the ship’s cook.

Much has been written about Captain Cook but this book gives a completely fresh perspective. You can tell so many different stories through food— culture, class, adventure, humour and history. And there are more stories in the illustrations—it is a masterpiece in my opinion.

Julia Marshall, Publisher

Cook’s Cook follows the 1768 journey of James Cook’s H.M.S. Endeavour with his ship’s cook, the one-handed John Thompson, as story teller.
