Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical
literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.
A story of pursuit, retribution and disaster at sea
The story of the mutiny of the crew of the Bounty led by Fletcher
Christian is well known. That story and Captain Bligh's endurance
in an open boat is available from Leonaur. The Royal Navy, however,
were not about to allow such an outrage go unpunished and it
despatched HMS Pandora to bring the culprits to account. The
Pandora's voyage-told here in two contrasting accounts-is no less
remarkable than that of the Bounty itself. After many trials
including the capture of some of the mutineers it too ended in
disaster. An essential book for all those interested in the Royal
Navy during the great age of sail.
