The story of Fletcher Christian, sailor, adventurer and mutineer of the HMS Bounty.

From New Zealand's master historical novelist comes an enthralling maritime saga of the most notorious and far-reaching rebellion in naval history, and the relationship between Englishman Fletcher Christian and Isabella, his Tahitian lover.
