Mutiny at sea has always been a looming danger, particularly on long, difficult voyages. Richard Woodman brings a seaman's perspectives to mutinies across the globe, from Magellan's successful handling of mutiny on his great voyage of discovery & circumnavigation in 1519 to the 'sordid crimes' that mutinies had become by the end of WWII.
