Voyage to the South Seas
Nice British understatement in this obviously genuine journal. Will Bligh would have been disappointed I'm sure with the modern treatment of his story which invariably paints him to be the villian of the piece. However we who read this dry account of an epic voyage know better. It is our luck to have it recorded to read at our convenience and makes me wonder at the multitude of stories from our past that have gone unrecorded, many no doubt even more arduous.
Really recommend Omoo by Herman Melville to anyone who likes this sort of thing.
