| Plot Summary of Mutiny on the Bounty |
"I have read this book three times. Each time I am pulled onto the ship with the men. I can see Tahiti with it's lush green hills and the natives on the beach. The cruelty that the men endure makes me angry that they don't do something sooner."
Bruce A. Humphrey, Resident Scholar
