Although Cook is inextricably linked to the South Pacific in the popular imagination, his crowning navigational and scientific achievements took place in the polar regions. David L. Nicandri acknowledges the cartographic accomplishments of the Australasian first voyage but focuses on the second- and third-voyage discovery missions in the extreme latitudes, where Cook pioneered the science of iceberg and icepack formation. A truly modern appraisal of early polar science, Captain Cook Rediscovered resonates in the climate change era."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 600 10 $a Cook, James, $d 1728-1779 $x Travel $z Polar regions. 600 16 $a Cook, James, $d 1728-1779 $x voyages $z Regions polaires 600 17 $a Cook, James, $d 1728-1779. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00028644 651 0 $a Polar regions $x History $x History $y 18th century. 651 0 $a Polar regions $x British. $x British. 651 6 $a Regions polaires $x Histoire $x Histoire $y 18e siecle. 651 6 $a Regions polaires $x Decouverte et exploration britanniques. 650 7 $a Discoveries in geography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00894950 650 7 $a Research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01095153 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 651 7 $a Polar regions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245645 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Nicandri, David L., 1948- $t Captain Cook rediscovered. $d Vancouver ; Toronto : UBC Press, 2020 $z 9780774862240 $z 9780774862240 $w (OCoLC)1164338027 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117011426.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=15E3BA7ABFA611ECA5AD8FDE3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
