Anthony Hill latest title ‘Captain Cook’s Apprentice’ has brought historical events to the forfront through the eyes of the ships’ boy – Isaac Manley.
“Captain Cook’s Apprentice is the story of the famous Endeavour voyage as seen through the eyes of a ship’s boy, Isaac Manley.
Death in the snows of Tierra del Fuego … first love in Tahiti … Maori warriors and cannibals in New Zealand … Botany Bay … near-disaster on the Great Barrier Reef … and real tragedy waiting for them in Java. Isaac Manley saw it all. A real boy, who was promoted Midshipman by Captain Cook, Isaac Manley went on to become an Admiral and was the last survivor of the Endeavour crew. ”
It is a fantastic book that encourages students to read more about our history through the eyes of a child. Anthony always knows how to bring history to life.
