1851Sm. 8vo., Second Edition, with lithographed portrait frontispiece (original tissue guard present), lithographed portrait of John Adams, lithographed plate of the landing beach and full-page illustration in the text, some minimal spotting on title; attractively bound in contemporary half calf, maroon pebble-grain cloth sides, expertly rebacked with old backstrip gilt laid down, backstrip with gilt ruled, second compartment with green leather label lettered in gilt, red sprinkled edges, terracotta endpapers, a remarkably bright, crisp, clean copy. With the record of shipping and list of of subscribers. This famous and invaluable account of the Bounty mutineers was published three times in the first year. The author, en route from New Zealand to the gold fields of California, was stranded at Pitcairn when his vessel was blown offshore. During his enforced stay he compiled an extensive account of the later events of the Bounty Mutiny, with a detailed list of Bounty descendants and a valuable record of vessels calling at the island.

1859Sm. 8vo., Eleventh Edition, with engraved portrait frontispiece, 14 engraved plates and engraved chart, contemporary signatures on front endpapers; original brown diced cloth, upper board blocked in gilt and blind, backstrip blocked and lettered in gilt, primrose endpapers, expertly rebacked, a remarkably bright, clean, crisp copy in publisher's original pictorial binding. With 4pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end, and binder's ticket of Trickett & Son on rear paste-down. With a relevant postcard and cutting loosely inserted. First published in 1853, this is arguably the best mid-nineteenth century account of the aftermath of the mutiny. Its publication was stimulated by a resurrection of public interest in the BOUNTY saga following the visit to England in 1850 of the Pitcairn Pastor George Nobbs. The work includes considerable detail on the fate of the mutineers, their descendants and the present population; this edition benefits from 'additional intelligence respecting Pitcairn and the Islanders'. The Society continued to publish the work in various editions until the early years of the twentieth century. SCARCE IN ANY EARLY EDITION.
