Pitcairn's Island

De: Charles Nordhoff, James Norma Hall

Narrado por: Charlton Griffin

Pitcairn's Island is the third and final novel in The Bounty Trilogy, a series of novels that describe the voyage, mutiny, and subsequent adventures of the officers and crew of HMS Bounty during its voyage from Spithead on the English Channel to Tahiti in the South Pacific.

On April 28, 1789, disaffected crewmen led by Lieutenant Fletcher Christian seized control of the Bounty somewhere about 30 miles south of the tropical island of Tofua. After putting the ship's captain and loyal members of his crew adrift on the Bounty's launch, Fletcher Christian led the crew to an uncharted island about 3,000 miles away.

In a narrative filled with the pathos of optimism and tragedy, the violent story of the mutineers comes to a close. The sole English survivor tells the final tale of the fate which overwhelmed the Bounty and her crew. It is a haunting tale that stretches across the centuries.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“This vigorous, artistic narrative remains incontestably the finest account of the Bounty story, and since many others have tried to write of this famous ship and its misadventures, the accomplishment of Nordhoff and Hall was not trivial. A grand book.” – James A. Michener

The making of a paradise

This is the story of the south seas and it’s inhabitants when the mutineers of the bounty arrive on a remote island and make it their own. The ups and downs of human behavior resulting in the good for all. This was an enjoyable story and filled with the truth of how humans choose to live with each other in harmony and disharmony. I enjoyed the story and the philosophy behind it. I think it was a story with a hopeful ending with the elements that can make community decisions. Thrive.

surprisingly well done hard to put down

I wasn't expecting all these action packed sequences of Christian settlement and Alex Journey it's amazingly well done I couldn't put it down

Great story, masterfully presented.

Engaging and interesting follow up the central story, Mutiny on the Bounty. Presentation fitting the time and place.

great

Read this a lifetime ago. Excellent in every way.
Best yet.
Check this one out.

Charlton Griffin had an amazing voice and reads the entire Mutiny on the Bounty series wonderfully.

The editing of this is poor. Charlton Griffin did a great job reading, but whoever edited it left in a few times he cleared his throat, or stopped and restarted.
