He sets sail as captain of a convict transport for the penal colony in New South Wales -- and challenges that will test both his seamanship and humanity to the limit.

Recensione
Stockwin paints a vivid picture of life aboard the mighty ship-of-the-line... the harsh naval discipline, the rancid food, and the skill of the common sailor are all skilfully evoked. (Daily Express on KYDD)
In Stockwin's hands the sea story will continue to entrance readers across the world. (Guardian on KYDD)
The appeal of the story is in the telling, which is atmospheric, authentic ... The author had a long career in the Royal Navy, which adds to his prose that extra dash of salty realism. (Publishing News on MUTINY)
I was soon turning the pages almost indecently fast ... Roll on, the promised adventures of Kydd and Renzi. (Independent on KYDD)
Descrizione del libro
