Some minor nicks, tears & creases). Name of previous owner in colour pencil on 'Advertisement' page. Otherwise internally clean. The book would benefit greatly from rebinding. Despite its faults it remains a fascinating copy and a terrific read. Captain Bligh's initial account on the most famous mutiny in maritime history, written shortly after returning to England in March 1790. From the book's 'Advertisement' page: "This part of the voyage is not first in the order of time, yet the circumstances are so distinct from that by which it was preceded, that it appears unnecessary to delay giving as much early information as possible concerning so extraordinary an event. The rest will be laid before the Public as soon as it can be got ready; and it is intented to publish it in such a manner, as, with the present Narrative, will make the account of the voyage complete." William Bligh's Narrative covers the period from April 4, 1789, to March 14, 1790; that is from the departure of the Bounty from Otaheite (Tahiti) to his own arrival back in Britain. The Mutiny on the Bounty took place April 28, three weeks after departure. Bligh published his narrativel several months after his return to London. Titled 'Narrative of the Mutiny on the Bounty', it was a bestseller for the publisher, George Nicol. Bligh published an expanded account, A Voyage to the South Sea, in 1792. Bligh's narrative called the voyage one of "uninterrupted prosperity," and made no mention of personal differences with the crew. Bligh's 1790 'Narrative' was consequently published (pirated) in Dublin, Philadelphia, Rotterdam, and Paris & Amsterdam the same year: Official First Edition: London (George Nicol). Pirated Editions (all 1790): Dublin (White, Byrne et al), Philadelphia (W. Spotswood), Paris & Amsterdam (Didot & Dufour), (French), Rotterdam (G.A. Arenberg): (Dutch). Note: Unlike the First (George Nicol, London) Edition; the Dublin Edition was published without charts & plans.

Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition of Bligh's firsthand account of "one of the most remarkable incidents in the whole of maritime history [which ultimately absolved him] from any blame that might be levelled against him because of the incident" (Hill). Quarto, original boards, lacking the spine, engraved folding plan "A copy of the draft from which…the Bounty's launch was built", three engraved folding charts ÂJ. Walker after W. Harrison. In good condition. Scarce in the original boards. The HMS Bounty was acquired by the Royal Navy in 1787 to transport breadfruit plants from Tahiti (then rendered "Otaheite"), a Polynesian island in the south Pacific, to the British colonies in the West Indies. Command of the expedition was given to Lieutenant William Bligh, whose experiences included Captain James Cook's third and final voyage (1776â"80) in which he had served as sailing master, or chief navigator, on HMS Resolution. HMS Bounty left Spithead on 23 December 1787 with Bligh as captain, accompanied by a 44-man crew, two botanists, David Nelson and William Brown, and a diarist, James Morrison. Bligh reached Tahiti on 26 October 1788; after more than five months, the Bounty sailed for the West Indies laden with "more than 1,000 young breadfruit plants". On 28 April, after a few weeks at sea, Fletcher Christian, the master's mate, led sections of the crew in a mutiny and commandeered the Bounty, setting Bligh and 18 loyal crewmen adrift in a 23-foot long launch. Despite being given little in terms of navigational tools, Bligh reached Coupang modern day Kupang, Timor, then a Dutch East India settlement on 14 June 1789, after a 3,500 mile long voyage. During this "hazardous journey Bligh took the opportunity to chart and name parts of the unknown north-east coast of New Holland as he passed along it an extraordinary feat of seamanship" (Wantrup, Australian Rare Books 1788-1900). By the time of his return to England in August 1793, following his successful conveyance of breadfruit to the West Indies aboard Providence, professional and public opinion had turned against him. The present first edition of Bligh's account appeared two years prior to the full official version which pardoned him of any misconduct in the incident.
