Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mutineers of the Bounty: And Their Descendants in Pitcairn and Norfolk Islands A Period of thirty-nine years has elapsed since the appearance of a little volume entitled "The Mutiny of the Bounty," which formed one of the series of the "Family Library." The work was favorably received; but did not contain all the information which might have been afforded. It was written by the late Sir John Barrow, then Secretary at the Admiralty, principally from papers which a mutual friend requested might be placed at his disposal by the late Mrs. Heywood, widow of Captain Peter Hey wood, R.N., who had been one of the midshipmen in the Bounty. An accidental circumstance, and the possession of a variety of private documents on the subject, have induced the writer to lay before the public what she ventures to believe will be found to be a more connected and impartial narrative. Many details have come to her knowledge from personal sources and from family manuscripts to which she has had access, in consequence of being the step-daughter of Captain Heywood.
