The conquest of scurvy by James Cook during his three famous circumnavigations of 1768-1780 was a product of Cook's character, of his leadership, and of the wisdom of the naturalists who accompanied Cook; This is an account of the lasting medical effects of Cook's voyages as he tried to liberate mankind from the scourge of scurvy.
