The story of HMS Bounty
HMS Bounty set sail from England in December 1787 to transport breadfruit to the Caribbean from Tahiti. A major storm forced them to change course and arrive in Tahiti several months late. After many difficulties in re-establishing discipline, a mutiny broke out on board 24 days after they had set sail again.
