     Extractions: A rapidly disappearing natural world Home The Explorers Captain James Cook N avigator and explorer of the Pacific and Antarctic, born in 1728 in Yorkshire, England. From an early age Cook had an uncanny command of mathematics. Around the age of seventeen he applied for a job on a collier (coal transport ship) and learned his trade on runs from Newcastle to London and into the Baltic and North Seas. He joined the Royal Navy in 1755 at the age of 27. His extraordinary skills at navigation and cartography soon gained him a promotion. In 1768 Cook was appointed commander of the H.M.S. Endeavour to take members of the Royal Society on an expedition to Tahiti, where they would record the transit of Venus across the sun and engage in general exploration. The Endeavour was a refitted collier and proved well suited to exploration because of its large capacity for cargo and shallow draft. Cook's second ship, the H.M.S. Resolution, was also a refitted collier. Captain James Cook promoted the practice of feeding his crew sauerkraut and lime juice to fight scurvy, based on the studies done by Dr. James Lind in 1747, and insisted his crew wash themselves and their possessions, and exercise on the open deck regularly.

In addition to factoring in the requests of the crew, including vegetarian meals and low-fat choices, Richard has to follow budget guidelines and restrictions, a nutritional program and dietetic guidelines, and NOAA union guidelines. There is also a Ron Brown menu committee that convenes about four times a year to discuss suggestions for menu changes and additions.

Assessment I Print Preview of Section Cook, James (1728-1779), British naval officer, cartographer, and explorer, famous for his three great voyages of exploration in the Pacific Ocean and North American coastal waters. Cook, popularly called Captain Cook, was born in Marton-in-Cleveland, England, the son of a farm labourer. At the age of 18 he was apprenticed to a firm of shipwrights at Whitby , and taught himself mathematics and astronomy. In 1755, with England on the verge of war with France (Seven Years’ War), Cook enlisted in the British Royal Navy. His skills as a seaman and navigator brought him to the attention of Sir Hugh Palliser. Cook's charts of the St Lawrence River helped the British victory at Quebec in September 1759, and when Palliser became Governor of Newfoundland, Cook was employed to carry out coastal surveys of the North Atlantic coastal waters off
