| Meer info | While most people are familiar with the 'Mutiny on the Bounty', few realize that Bligh was sent back to the South Pacific two years later. This time, with two ships, a proper officer corps, and a detachment of Marines to keep order, he succeeded in completing his original mission to transplant breadfruit to the West Indies. A number of soon-to-be-famous names accompanied him, including Matthew Flinders who was to become one of the pioneer explorers of Australia. Also selected for the voyage was Lieutenant George Tobin, an unusual naval officer of wide interests and an enquiring mind, who kept a journal of the voyage. This provides an unusually balanced portrait of Bligh, but what particularly interested him was the societies of the Pacific, especially that of Tahiti, where the expedition spent many months. |
