I kamp med havet [At War with the Sea]

Summary

Det er måske den mest enestående sørejse i søfartens historie, som kaptajn William Bligh gennemførte, da han i 1789 efter mytteriet på hans skib H.M.S. Bounty sammen med 18 besætningsmedlemmer blev efterladt midt ude på Stillehavet i en åben båd. I I kamp med havet er det underlæge Thomas Ledward, der beretter, hvordan kaptajn Bligh førte Bountys lille, ubevæbnede og overlæssede barkasse 4000 miles fra Venskabsøerne til Timor. I 41 spændingsfyldte døgn må de 19 mænd kæmpe mod vilde stammer, sol, storme, sult og tørst, mens de forsøger at holde modet oppe. Vind, vejr og begivenheder er hentet fra kaptajn Blighs egen logbog, hvor han ganske kort har givet en beskrivelse af hver enkelt dag. Beretningen om disse mænds kamp og trængsler er et uforglemmeligt epos om menneskelig vilje og udholdenhed, om en af de mest fantastiske sørejser, der nogensinde er foretaget. Please note: This audiobook is in Danish.
