A trip across the Pacific turns into a life or death scenario when
the crew of the HMS Bounty stages a revolt against their commander.
The Bounty Mutiny tells the controversial story of the mutineers
and the acting lieutenant who sparked a movement. Commanding
Lieutenant William Bligh was instructed to use the HMS Bounty to
transport breadfruit plants to the West Indies. He worked alongside
skilled colleague Fletcher Christian, who was selected to be acting
lieutenant. During their time at sea, the crew experienced many
challenges with complaints of abuse and tyranny at the hands of
Bligh. This eventually leads to a mutiny, in which Christian and
the crew take control of the vessel. This harrowing tale is one of
the most adapted events of all-time. Over the past century, it has
been interpretated across multiple mediums including five feature
films starring George Cross, Errol Flynn, Clark Gable, Marlon
Brando and Anthony Hopkins. It's an enduring story that continues
to fascinate and provoke the masses. With an eye-catching new
cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The
Bounty Mutiny is both modern and readable.
