Previous Owner's Name Penned in Front,Otherwise Very Good in Wrappers. 0451500946. Afterword By Milton Rugoff. 240 pages. paperback. CP94. . keywords: Signet Classic Paperback Maritime The Sea Autobiography England History. FROM THE PUBLISHER - The most celebrated mutiny in the annals of the sea and the subsequent 3,600-mile South Sea voyage in an open boat were recorded by William Bligh, the Bounty's beleaguered master, amidst all the perils he underwent. A resentful crew, ravaging storms, savages, uncharted archipelagoes - elements of high adventure in themselves - are merely stages leading up to the anxiety-charged ordeal to come. In this deeply personal, yet objective narrative based upon his ship's log, Bligh documents the voyage of the Bounty and his relationship to his men - thereby posing the endlessly debated question of what manner of man he really was: sadistic disciplinarian of sensitive youth? Or a stern but just captain, a superb seaman, the victim of a rash young man made frantic by the loss of an island paradise? inventory #32351 Previous Owner's Name Penned in Front,Otherwise Very Good in Wrappers.

All are issued in the original 'sail-type' canvas of various colors and designs with top edges and spines gilt. The following are in order of publication. Vol. I.
