Furneaux, my Father, 1777' on the initial blank in a contemporary hand, with a further inscription, 'The James Furneaux, of Swilly, to whom Capt Cook presented this book, was an elder brother of Capt. Tobias Furneaux', in a later hand below; thence by descent to the present owner. Cook had set out on his third and final voyage on 12 July 1776, by which time Tobias Furneaux was in North America. His ship, the Syren, was lost off Rhode Island the following year: he was taken prisoner and did not return to England until at least 1778. In Furneaux's absence, his elder brother James (1725-1785), himself a naval officer, would have been a natural recipient of any presentation copy sent on Cook's behalf. The inscription conceivably admits of the possibility that the 'author' referred to is in fact Tobias, whose narrative is also printed, in which case the date would have been recalled inaccurately by James's son (also James, 1752-1802, clergyman; another son, William, died in infancy). James Furneaux's naval career suggests a talented if unlucky sailor. He entered the navy in 1738 and after initial service in the Mediterranean was by February 1743 fourth lieutenant on HMS Burford, which that month served in the defeat at La Guaira with the loss of its own captain Edward Lushington. He was later promoted first lieutenant and is found in temporary command of the Antelope, cruising off Toulon, before returning to the Burford. In 1755 he was appointed to the Vanguard at the personal request of its captain John Byron, grandfather of the poet, and in 1757 followed him to the America, which participated in Edward Hawke's 'futile' expedition against Rochefort, cruised with success on the French coast, and later joined the fleet off Brest under Anson (ODNB). He is known to have referred to Byron for a testimonial in 1758, after which point he does not appear to have served.
