The Bounty Mutiny: Biographical and Autobiographical Narratives) (Mint Editions (In Their Own Words: Biographical and Autobiographical Narratives)) - Softcover
Synopsis
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.

About the Author
William Bligh (1754–1817) was an English explorer and famed member of the Royal Navy. He joined the military at a very young age, holding multiple positions including able seaman, midshipman and sailing master. His momentous career is often overshadowed by the infamous mutiny on the HMS Bounty, led by Acting Lieutenant Fletcher Christian. Bligh would go on to detail the event in A Narrative of The Mutiny, On Board His Majesty's Ship Bounty; And The Subsequent Voyage of Part of The Crew, In The Ship's Boat. It’s a popular retelling that would inspire future interpretations of the incident.
