All, I obtained a hardbacked copy of a new(2003) Mutiny on the Bounty story. It is called "The Bounty" by Caroline Alexander.She also wrote the book "The Endurance" a few years ago that was very well researched and written.I picked that book up because as I explaned to G. Huxtable a while back Shackleton was one of my boyhood heroes. This new book(I only started it,now on pg 59)is very interesting and somewhat differant from the story I read as a kid.This book is very well researched and may shead some new light on what happened to Bligh and all involved. Just thought I would share the above if anyone is interested.
