The Bounty. The True Story of the Mutiny on the Bounty.

Caroline Alexander.

The Admiralty documents give the official story of the celebrated munity. This is a very through and well researched reworking of the Bounty story drawing on private documents not previously consulted. The purpose of the ill-fated voyage was to collect live breadfruit plants from Tahiti and transport them to the West Indies. An engrossing episode in botanical history.
