Description: "While the full story of what drove the men to revolt or what really transpired during the struggle may never be known, Penguin Classics has brought together - for the first time in one volume - all the relevant texts and documents related to a drama that has fascinated generations.

Here are the full text of Bligh's Narrative of the Mutiny, the minutes of the court proceedings gathered by Edward Christian in an effort to clear his brother's name, and the highly polemic correspondence between Bligh and Christian - all amplified by Robert Madison's introduction and selection of subsequent Bounty narratives."--BOOK JACKET.
