Pappe. Condizione: Gut. 376 S., 24 cm Zustand: zweifarbiger Pappeinband imitiert Halbleinen, illustrierter Schutzumschlag mit hinterlegten Randläsionen --- Inhalt: englischer Text. -- Vanessa Collingridge (* 1968 in Oxfordshire) ist eine britische Autorin und Hörfunksprecherin. 2000 kündigte sie ihren Fernsehmoderatorenjob bei Tonight with Trevor McDonald, um zwei Biografien zu schreiben, die eine über James Cook, einen Entdecker des 18. Jahrhunderts. Während ihrer Forschungen über James Cook entdeckte sie, dass sie gemeinsame Vorfahren mit dem umstrittenen australischen Schriftsteller und Illustrator George Collingridge hat, der 1895 die Theorie von einer portugiesischen Entdeckung Australiens erklärt hatte.[wikipedia] F2-2 ISBN: 9781585747252 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 750.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. New hardcover in a new dust jacket. 8vo. (6.25 x 1.25 x 9.25 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. Includes maps, selected bibliography and an index. 376 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. Ln 1768 James Cook, on an epic sea journey that secured his place in history, discovered Australia. One hundred years later, countering cherished legends, George Collingridge dared to claim that the Portuguese had gotten to Australia first. Now VANESSA COLLINGRIDGE, his distant cousin, unravels the strange tale of history's most fascinating explorer and the man who sought to dethrone him. Collingridge charts the captain's celebrated voyages: Cook mapped the Pacific islands, circumnavigated Antarctica, charted New Zealand, and discovered the New Hebrides and Australia, curing scurvy along the way. He was shipwrecked on the Great Barrier Reef, cruised with sails frozen amid two-hundred-foot-tall icebergs, struggled to keep his crew from losing battles with alcohol and Polynesian women, and somehow managed to stay one step ahead of competing French and Spanish explorers. Over his twenty-one years of adventure - until his murder on a beach in Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii in 1779 - Cook changed the Western map of the world. Or so schoolchildren were taught. In 1883 British aristocrat George Collingridge sailed Down Under in search of adventure - and came across maps of Australia dated 1542 and 1546, drawn in northern France but based on Portuguese originals, suggesting that Cook was not the first to reach Australia. The proposal would prove Collingridges undoing - and yet it is a controversy that lives on.…
