[Anonymous] : A log of a voyage round the world in His Britannic Majesty's bark Endeavo...

Date: 1768-1771

Reference: qMS-0880

Description: One of the several logs from the first voyage, beginning on 26 May 1768 and finishing 6 Oct 1770. For further description see J C Beaglehole, "The Journals of Captain James Cook....', Cambridge 1955, Volume 1, pp ccxxxvii-ccxxxviii) This log was originally attributed by the Library to Cook's astronomer, Charles Green, based on a statement in an early NSW Library Cook bibliography. However, that was disproved by J C Beaglehole in his discussion of this and other logs in the introduction to his 'The Journals of Captain James Cook....', volume 1 (Cambridge 1955, pp ccxxxvii-ccxxxviii). Although he does not discount a connection with Green he concludes it is best described as of anonymous creation.
