Focusing on the voyage narrative as a significant form of eighteenth-century literature, this comprehensive study explores both published and unpublished works, ranging from official accounts to lesser-known tales of the press-gang's victims. It examines writings about the Pacific, including notable voyages by Cook and Bligh, and features in-depth studies of figures like William Dampier. The book emphasizes the craft of writing over mere exploration, revealing how narratives reflect the complexities of British imperialism and the diverse experiences of seamen and passengers.
