Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
To celebrate the 200th anniversary of the mutiny on the Bounty, this is a reissue of Nordhoff's and Hall's classic Bounty Trilogy in one volume. It is a story of drunkenness, betrayal, murder and vengeance - a saga that will be remembered as long as men sail the sea.

I bought the trilogy for a nephew. I read it many years ago when I was in college. While this is a fictionalized version of the true story, it is fairly faithful to the facts and it successfully portrays the difficult lives of 18th century seaman. It inspired me to become a bit of a Bounty buff and I've read many books and articles of the true story. I think Men Against the Sea is the best narrative of the three.

The Bounty Triolgy is a story for all ages. I read it when I was 12 and I loved it. I read it again twenty years later in my early 30's, and I loved it. More than twenty later again, I just read for a third time, and I loved it. The Bounty is not only a great adventure, but there is magic in the story as told by Nordhoff and Hall. And just for fun, read Pitcairn's Island with evolutionary psychology, or even feminist doctrine, in mind. Or maybe not. Just enjoy the story. No better story could ever be handed to an author. And Nordhoff and Hall did the story justice. It's a timeless classic.

Wyeth Edition; contains Mutiny on the Bounty, Men against the Sea, and Pitcairn's Island.
The stories themselves are of historical interest because they are early historical fiction (originally published 1932-1934) before historical fiction became a separate section in the bookstore.
Excellent blend of history and fiction adventure interest. It is hard to tell where the history ends and the fiction begins, a testament to the skill of the writers.
Absolutely fascinating stories, each completely different in setting, action, and (mostly) characters. Hard to believe all three are written by the same pair of authors.

To all those actively seeking hardy adventure from the comfort of a chair:
Look no farther, your search has come to an end. This is it. This is 100% total immersion into a world of adventure. So this thing comes in three equally consuming parts. I mean who writes an entire book about sixteen guys stuck on a small wooden paddle boat out in the middle of the pacific, and makes it a treat to read? Hardy adventure seeker I have your fix, and it's not a quick fix, it's a time consuming gem that will have you in its grips until the last page is eaten up. I have to admit that I can't think of an adventure novel(trilogy) that I've enjoyed this much. Quality entertainment. Quality.
