Description
The mutiny on Bounty on 28 April 1789 was the revolt of one man against another – Fletcher Christian against William Bligh. On that fateful day two friends became mortal enemies in a mighty clash of wills that rocked a nation.
In Fragile Paradise, the great-great-great-great-grandson of the Bounty mutineer brings to life a fascinating and complex character history portrayed as both hero and a villain. The result is a brilliant and compelling historical detective story, full of intrigue, jealousy, revenge, and adventure on the high seas. Glynn Christian shares the thrill of discovery as he follows the footsteps of his famous ancestor through family papers, contemporary records, and ultimately on his own sailing expedition to Pitcairn Island where he finally solves the riddle of Fletcher Christian’s death.
