Chris Green is The History Chap; telling stories that brings the past to life.

The Mutiny on the Bounty is one of history's most famous naval rebellions, but what most people know comes from Hollywood, not history. The films of 1935, 1962, and 1984 portrayed William Bligh as a tyrannical monster and Fletcher Christian as a heroic champion of the oppressed. But the real story is far more nuanced—and far more interesting.
