Two Hundred and Fifty Ways to Start an Essay about Captain Cook – Alice Te Punga Somerville

Captain Cook? It’s all so very complex. With sharp wit and incisive scholarship, Alice Te Punga Somerville offers 250 beginnings – fragments, provocations, refusals – that confront Cook’s global colonial legacy. Combining deep research with dark humour, she crafts a revealing and defiant response that challenges how we think about history, memory, and power.

A bold contribution to the BWB Texts series, this book refuses simple answers and instead insists on asking the right questions.
