Mutiny by Julian Stockwin

Didn't get into the tale at all as I found the language of the sea too hard to decipher I am afraid. I guess you need to be a certain type of sea living reader in order to enjoy such books. I don't blame the author at all as he could not have written it any other way otherwise the intended effect of 18th century naval lifestyle would have been lost. Unfortunately for me, I am not the seafaring type, therefore could only manage a third of the high sea adventure :(
