description: Drawing on an eyewitness account that was lost for over 150 years, Gibson recounts the 1824 mutiny, one of the goriest in maritime lore. The Quaker-bred man at its center, the sperm-oil industry, Nantucket power brokers, and the fledgling US Navy are part of the tale. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
