On the 250th anniversary of Captain Cook's navigation to Australia, this absorbing story chronicles one of Britain's great national heroes, from his humble beginnings to his violent death at fifty-one. Hacked to death by Hawaiian islanders on 14 February 1779, Cook was already regarded as the greatest explorer of his time. Driven by an insatiable passion for discovery, he became an unparalleled seaman, navigator, and cartographer. His relentless pursuit of exploration inspired unwavering loyalty from his crew, who viewed him as their guiding star. Between 1768 and 1779, Cook completed three circumnavigations of the globe, setting records in exploration and endurance. He charted New Zealand's coasts, landed in Botany Bay, mapped the Pacific islands, and ventured further south than anyone before. He also explored the Great Barrier Reef and journeyed thousands of miles north in search of the North-West Passage. Alistair MacLean offers a vivid account of Cook's remarkable voyages and the challenges faced by his crews in largely uncharted territories. Cook's life exemplifies his ambition to explore beyond known limits, making his story a thrilling testament to human endeavor and exploration.

The thrilling sequel to Alistair MacLean's masterpiece of World War II adventure, The Guns of Navarone. Now reissued in a new cover style.

Forbidding peaks, resourceful commandos, beautiful spies, nonstop action, and neck-snapping plot twists make this the classic adventure thriller—the kind of page-turner that readers actually will find impossible to put down. A team of British Special Forces commandos parachutes into the high peaks of the Austrian Alps with the mission of stealing into an invulnerable alpine castle—accessible only by aerial gondola—the headquarters of Nazi intelligence. Supposedly sent in to rescue one of their own, their real mission turns out to be a lot more complicated—and the tension climbs as team members start to die off, one by one. Written by Alistair Maclean, author of the Guns of Navarone, this is the novel that set the pace for the modern action thriller (the film version, with Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood, also helped), and it still packs twice the punch of most contemporary best-selling thrillers. What's more, the cast of spooks, turncoats, and commandos who drive this story are more relevant than ever in our new era of special forces, black ops, and unpredictable alliances.
