The Cook Legacy
The first Europeans to explore the Pacific irreversibly changed the way of life of the peoples they encountered. So, much of what is believed about the cultures of the Pacific, before European influence, depends on Captain Cook's diaries of those initial encounters, and the objects his expeditions brought back.
Two anthropologists, Adrienne Kaeppler and Peter Gathereole , trace Cook artifacts to their origins and discover that some come from a different place and time.
