I'm not sure how old you are so here a couple of links for you.
Wikipedia, the first link, is a good site not only for its information but for the links it provides.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Cook
The second one I'd say was for a younger person, its an essay written as if the authour is Captain James Cook and although I'm 33 I found it was a good source of information.

Good luck with your project.
Karma.
