Reviews
"For anyone interested in the Bounty saga, this volume is a most worthwhile addition to the extant nonfiction reading currently available."--S ea History, "What a monumental undertaking! Donald Maxton's passion and perseverance in pursuing his goal is topped only by his impeccable scholarship and thorough knowledge of his subject. Kudos and 'Huzzah for Otaheite' and for Maxton!"--Éva Wahlroos, contributor, researcher, and collaborator on English-Tahitian/Tahitian-English Dictionary and Mutiny and Romance in the South Seas: A Companion to the Bounty Adventure, "Editor Maxton . . . has done an excellent job in preparing Morrison's works for publication, and supplemented them with a valuable commentary, which makes After the Bounty a good read for anyone interested in life at sea in the age of sail or the history and culture of the South Seas."--strategypage.com, "[This book] can be expected to add richly and pervasively to general knowledge of that historically and historiographically conspicuous incident."-- Mariner's Mirror, "[Morrison's] stories of adventure after the Bounty mutiny makes for a powerful historical journal packed with nautical adventure and perfect for any nautical history library."-- Midwest Book Review, "Written with a novelist's eye for detail, a participant's firsthand knowledge, and a literate seaman's plain-spoken clarity, pardoned mutineer James Morrison's account of the Bounty mutiny and its aftermath is an engrossing illustration of humanity at its best and worst. A true seafaring odyssey, After the Bounty leaves the reader with the sense of being present at the events described--it superbly conveys the rich reality of life at sea, the strident clash of cultures, and the exceptional experiences that change, and even end, lives. Above all, the journal is an extraordinary look at the complexity of human behavior, an intimate, sympathetic account of the Tahitian people, and a reminder of the epic dangers and discoveries that make adventure what it is."--Benerson Little, author of The Sea Rover's Practice and Pirate Hunting, " After the Bounty makes a most important contribution to the literature of the Bounty saga. Through its publication, Morrison's enlightening account of the Bounty mutiny becomes available to the general public for the first time in three quarters of a century. This book is a 'must have' for any Bounty literature library."--Herbert Ford, director, Pitcairn Islands Study Center, "At long last we have here a complete 'Everyman's Morrison,' prepared by an established, devoted authority on the Bounty , and for the first time making available to a wider audience a readable and useful modern version of one of the great classic sources to our knowledge not only of the Bounty affair but also of late eighteenth-century Polynesia."--Rolf E. Du Rietz, author of Bibliotheca Polynesiana and Peter Heywood's Tahitian Vocabulary and the Narratives of James Morrison: some notes on their origin and history, "Anybody who is looking for a glimpse into what extreme adventure looked like in this distant past would find this book to be intellectually and emotionally stimulating."-- Pennsylvania Literary Journal, "It's a curiously, entertaining and instructive for age-of-fighting-sail or Herman Melville enthusiasts."-- Naval Review, "For anyone interested in the Bounty saga, this volume is a most worthwhile addition to the extant non-fiction reading currently available."--S ea History
