Why did Cook and his crew have an enormous technological
advantage over the native peoples of Tahiti, Hawaii, New Holland etc?
Why did the different peoples die from European
diseases, and not the Europeans from their diseases?
Why were Cook’s instructions secret both for the
first and the third voyages?
Why did he have just one ship on the first
expedition, and two on the second and third expeditions?
Why were there soldiers on board all the
expeditions?
What light does Captain Cook’s story throw on
the question of the role of the individual in history?
What would you make an axe with if you didn’t
have any metal? What about an arrow?
