Captain James Cook

James Cook (1728-1779) was the British naval officer and explorer who named New South Wales and claimed it for King George III of England. Cook Thought the east coast of Australia would be a good place for English people to live. Explorers who came to Australia before Cook did not think it was a nice country because it looked very dry. They thought it wasn't a good country for farming so they sailed on to other lands. Captain Cook was a very clever man. He was also a very fair man who always thought about the crew on his ship. He always shared the food out equally among himself, his officers and his men and he made sure they were treated well. He was the captain who discovered a way to stop sailors dying from a terrible disease called scurvy.

He made everyone eat fresh fruit and vegetables and after that no one died of scurvy. He was the first explorer to use scientific methods of navigation and he was able to make very accurate maps of the places he explored. Captain Cook made three important voyages in the Pacific ocean and he knew more about the area than any other European. On his last voyage in the Pacific he was killed. The Polynesians in Hawaii, who were angry with Cook's men, killed him with clubs and spears when he turned his back on them.
