Mutiny on the Bounty / Hetherton, Greg. 1989

Published by the pioneering Brighton firm Tressell Publications, this is an early, and little used example of the evidence-based approach to History that was so influential in changing the nature (and popularity) of History as a subject in secondary schools. It attempted to present available evidence in an interesting and imaginative way, so that students could work out their own conclusions as to the causes of the mutiny. As a mere historical footnote, it was understandably jettisoned with the arrival of the National Curriculum in the 1990s.
