This second edition has been fully revised and enormously extended, to make it by far the outstanding guide to sources of information on the great navigator. It lists, systematically and accurately, the great wealth of record, mainly in Australia, relating to Cook, his voyages, and his associates. It covers manuscripts, books, charts, portraits, pictures, medals and even relics. A full index is provided. This edition has been published by the Council of the Library of New South Wales to mark the bicentenary of Captain Cook's discovery of the cast coast of Australia, and as a continuing memorial to the man himself.".

Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole.

Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
