About This Item
First Australian edition, first printing, hardcover with dust jacket in archival cover. Angus & Robertson, 1965. Volume is very good - old price erasure front blank, bookseller's stamp front blank, no other interior markings, folds or problems. Shelf wear along bottom edges of boards. Dust jacket is good, not price clipped, moderate wear along creases, to corners and spine, complete. A scarce book especially in the US. Please sees scans of the book you will receive. Notes: This slim volume is underrated. It is a concise account of the players and the action and suggests some interesting ideas. Author provides some evidence that Christian had become mentally unwell. Less credibly she argues Midshipman Edward Young was the underhanded mastermind of the whole affair. However, at least two other authors (far more qualified than I) have written on this topic and found this plausible.
