First published in 1967. This journal is a copy of the narrated manuscript of Captain Cook’s last voyage of discovery into the Pacific Ocean. It spans from 1776 to 1779 and includes illustrations and maps.

Written from the perspective of the project archaeologist, this is the story of a remarkable, albeit accidental, discovery of a Spanish vessel on a secret mission carrying a unique cargo bound from Peru to the King of Spain, circa 1659. The San Miguel de Archangel carried a sample of the vaunted 'Star of Lima' coinage, minted illegally by the Count Alba de Liste. The ship wrecked with little note in the annals of Florida's history... until now.
