In 1788, the Bounty set sail from England to Tahiti, but the crew, tired of Captain Bligh's abuses, mutinied under the leadership of Christian Fletcher. This edition from Muchnik Editores, part of the 'Historical Novel' collection, features the translation by Inma Gutiérrez and offers an exciting narrative of the events that led to the famous mutiny. With 304 pages, this historical novel immerses the reader in an era of maritime adventures and human conflicts.
Charles Bernard Nordhoff was an American novelist and traveler, born in England. Nordhoff is perhaps best known for The Bounty Trilogy, three historical novels he wrote with James Norman Hall: Mutiny on the Bounty (1932), Men Against the Sea (1934) and Pitcairn's Island (1934). During World War I, he served as a driver in the Ambulance Corps as well as an aviator in both the French Air Force's Lafayette Flying Corps and the United States Army Air Service, reaching the rank of lieutenant. After the war, Nordhoff spent much of his life on the island of Tahiti, where he and Hall wrote a number of successful adventure books, many adapted for film.
