Trial of the Cannibal Dog by Anne Salmond
This text provides an account of Cook's South Sea voyages, in which Cook plunged south to discover Antarctica and then veered north to discover Hawaii. In Anne Salmond's narrative, Cook's ships, far from remaining little wooden islands of Englishness in a Polynesian sea, become ever more tangled in the worlds they encounter, leaving Cook's tattooed, dazzled sailors just as altered as the Polynesians themselves.
ANNE SALMOND is Professor of Maori Studies and Pro-Vice-Chancellor at the University of Auckland.
