Description

It is dawn, April 28, 1789. Captain William Bligh, commander of the HMS Bounty, and his eighteen men are herded by mutineers onto a twenty-three-foot launch and abandoned in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Covering 4,162 miles on the way to Java, the small boat and its men are subject to storms, illness, starvation, and attacks by islanders. Still, the journey stands as one of the greatest achievements in European seafaring history -- and a personal triumph for the historically misjudged Bligh. Captain Bligh's Portable Nightmare reveals, in vivid and breathtaking detail, Bligh's astounding mapmaking skills, explores his guilt over Captain Cooks' death, and discusses the failure of the Bounty expedition. Combining extensive research with gripping storytelling, Toohey tells a compelling tale of exploration, mutiny, and survival -- while reinstating Captain William Bligh as a legendary hero.
