I read this book whilst travelling from Tahiti to the Marquesas Islands on a cargo ship callled the "ARANUI".
I had seen the films regarding the "Mutiny on the Bounty" many times & this,amongst other things, had inspired me to travel to the South Seas.
Since reading Sven Wahlroos' account of this episode of British Naval history,I have become engrossed in the subject.
The book is very well written & the author is very well informed.It tells the true facts(as far as they can be verified) & offers very interesting insights as to the mindsets of the people involved.
A very interesting read & very informative with a very long list of further reading material should a person ,like myself, become addicted.
