The Pacific: In The Wake Of Captain Cook

History

History

Captain James Cook began his epic exploration of the Pacific nearly 250 years ago. Sam Neill journeys in the wake left by the captain to uncover stories that resonate from those times. Sam visits the islands and lands where Cook went and meets the descendants of the people that Cook originally spoke to. Neill looks into the triumphs, disasters, and delights as he tries to piece together whether Cook was part of expansion or an enlightened explorer ready to take on new ideas.
