Book Description hardcover. Condition: As New. Special book-of-the-Month Club e. Specially leather bound edition. Volume 1, facsimile only. This book was fascinating, and very informative. The book gave a detailed account of LT. William Bligh's journey to Timor in a small, wooden launch, not more that 23 feet in length. Into this boat went, 19 men, some meager supplies, and some navigational material. The hardships that faced the boat, and men ahead were astounding. It was more astounding that such an over laden boat was able to take a 3,600 mile journey, with the loss of only a single man. Seller Inventory # 2307160001
