Ah! The Mysteries of Captain Cook....

To be aboard a great ship like the HMS Resolution or her sister the HMS Discovery with Capt. Cook at the helm and nothing but exploration and open water ahead must have been a fantastic feeling.

For the crew of these gigantic ships fantasy clashed with reality as Capt. Cook crossed rivers between Deck Poseidon and Yorkshire Madman.

Discovery the act, not the ship was always at Captain James Cook’s beck and call until on his third and final voyage when the Captain plunged waist deep into insanity, legacy and the search for the Northwest Passage.
