Abstrakt: | Summary: The island occupied by HMAV Bounty's descendants later became home to a fraud who, with no official remit, became a virtual dictator with an influential vision for British control over the nineteenth-century Pacific Ocean. His story reframes the way we view that period of British imperial history onto a tiny Pacific island. |
