Norfolk and Pitcairn are two island specks in the South Pacific separated by over 3700 miles but joined in a common heritage. Both have been and still are home to the scattered descendants of the Bounty mutineers. By employing a variety of original sources, including Captain Bligh's diaries, and many handsome illustrations, Clarke has compiled an informative, entertaining account ranging from Norfolk's past as a brutal penal colony ("Hell") to the allure of Tahiti for Captain Cook and the men who followed him ("Paradise"). Includes colour images and illustrations.
