A voyage to the Pacific Ocean : undertaken, by the command of His Majesty, for making discoveries in the northern hemisphere : performed under the direction of Captains Cook, Clerke, and Gore, in His Majesty's ships the Resolution and Discovery; in the years 1776, 1777, 1778, 1779, and 1780 : in three volumes
An 1785 London account of Captain James Cook's third Pacific voyage, published in three volumes after the 1776 to 1780 expedition in the Resolution and Discovery, written for a British readership following his death. The pictures are engraved views and charts: a plate of a riverbank with boats and figures beside a fortified shore, and a coastal map with hatched cliffs, rules of latitude and longitude, and a title cartouche. A designer could draw on the fine parallel hatching for shading and the boxed map frames for layout.
