However, exactly how his demise in the Hawaiian Islands occurred remains a source of confusion for historians. This memoir by one of the men who accompanied Cook to the Pacific Ocean describes the events leading up to the famed adventurer's death as well as the aftermath of the tragedy from an eyewitness point of view of which very few were privy to.
