"Beyond the Charts"

For more than two hundred years the voyages of Captain James Cook have been treated as one of the greatest triumphs of human exploration. The maps are precise. The journals appear meticulous. The story seems settled. 

And yet scattered through the surviving records are details that refuse to behave. Entries that contradict one another. Observations quietly omitted. And events recorded in ways that raise a far more troubling question: What if the official story was never meant to be complete? 

When a scholar begins examining Cook's voyages more closely, he discovers that the greatest navigator of the Age of Exploration may not have been searching for new lands alone, but for something that history was never meant to remember. 

Beyond the Charts is a Journey into the margins of the record, where the difference between what was written and what was witnessed may change the story of exploration forever!

Overseas people? Buying a First Edition copy will ship from America meaning shipping fees are high! If you contact us via email, we can create a promocode for you that will help with shipping! The store will not allow anything other than flat rate shipping due to currency exchange. But if you buy a Second Edition copy, the store purchase will print locally (almost) worldwide! UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand all have local printers so when the book is bought, it will go into print (3-5 days) and then mail directly to you from the printer saving you exorbitant shipping fees and allow me to offer a discounted rate! 

Wholesale takes half of the books cover price plus the printer takes 2 percent plus the printing fee meaning the price is set by how much it costs to make the book. But with this POD (Print on Demand) feature, you can buy it at a lower fee since your buying it from the printer directly and not paying the wholesale fee. Plus since it is printed locally worldwide, you are saving huge shipping fees!
