Description
On October 25, 2012, Captain Robin Walbridge made the fateful decision to sail Bounty--the ship used in the classic film Mutiny on the Bounty--from Connecticut to Florida, despite warnings of Hurricane Sandy. His crew of fifteen opted to join him. Four days into the voyage, Sandy hit Bounty, and after several hours of brutal winds and violent waves, the ship overturned ninety miles off the North Carolina coast, sending the crew tumbling into a raging ocean. The Coast Guard then launched one of the most massive rescues in its history. In the days that followed, a single question persisted: Why did the captain decide to sail? Through hundreds of hours of interviews with the crew members, their families, and the Coast Guard, Michael J. Tougias and Douglas A. Campbell create an in-depth portrait of the enigmatic Captain Walbridge, his motivations, and what truly occurred aboard Bounty during those terrifying days at sea.
