William Bligh
À propos de cet audio
In 1787, William Bligh, commander of the Bounty, sailed under Captain Cook on a voyage to Tahiti to collect plants of the breadfruit tree, with a view to acclimatizing the species to the West Indies. During their six-month stay on the island, his men became completely demoralized, and on the return voyage mutinied. Yet a resentful crew, coupled with ravaging storms and ruthless savages, proved to be merely stages leading up to the anxiety-charged ordeal to come. Bligh, along with 18 men, was cast adrift in an open boat only 23 feet long, with a small stock of provisions, and without a chart.
His narrative, deeply personal yet objective, documents the voyage and Bligh’s relationships to his men, and thereby exposes the oft debated question of what manner of man he really was.

Fascinating historical account
I read parts of this when I was in my early teens and due to the older language it didn't hold my attention well. Nevertheless, I have been fascinated with this story my whole life and it was a joy to hear it with such a perfect voice (he also read Joshua Slocum's Sailing Alone Around the World).
If you are interested in history from this era or sailing, or the impact a change in scenery can have on a person, this is a must.

Hear it first hand
So much better to hear from Bligh vs watch the dramatized Hollywood accounts. Includes how he saved the men who were thrown into the boat with him after the mutiny.
For what happened to the mutineers, I recommend The Far Land by Brandon Presser.
