2381Boston: Congregational Publishing Society 1875. . 12mo aubergine cloth some wear to head and tail of spine; title page detached Second Edition much enlarged the original 1855 edition having only 19 pp. There are three holdings of this in OCLCÑtwo at the University of Illinois and one at Pacific Union College. Written 85 years after the Bounty mutineers first landed on Pitcairn this volume offers a somewhat sanitized version of the history of this tiny IslandÑthe world's smallest democratic unit administeredby the British High Commissioner to New Zealand for the British Crown. The 2010 constitution gives authority for the islands to operate as a representative democracy with theUnited Kingdom retaining responsibility for matters such as defence and foreign affairs. The Governor and the Island Council may enact laws for the 'peace order and good government' of Pitcairn. The Island Council customarily appoints a Mayor of Pitcairn as a day-to-day head of the local administration. There is a Commissioner appointed by the Governor who liaises between the Council and the Governor's office. Boston: Congregational Publishing Society, 1875. hardcover books

The screenplay was written by Charles Lederer with uncredited input from Eric Ambler William L. Driscoll Borden Chase John Gay and Ben Hecht based on the novel Mutiny on the Bounty by Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall.

16mo., Second Edition, with engraved frontispiece, 10 engraved plates and engraved chart, plates lightly spotted, neat contemporary inscription on half-title, embossed personal stamp on front free endpaper and half-title; original pictorial red cloth blocked in gilt and blind, gilt back, neatly rebacked with old backstrip gilt laid down, a very good, tight, clean copy. First published earlier the same year, 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'. SCARCE IN ANY EARLY EDITION
Sm. 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.
