Episode Synopsis
The life of Captain Cook is an impressive one, and he is perhaps one of the greatest navigators to have ever lived. His final voyage of exploration was to be extremely consequential for the Pacific Northwest. His crew traded with the people of Nootka Sound for Sea Otter pelts which would come to be known as "soft gold" and would become a major trade good.
