  This is the story of the bloodiest mutiny in the history of the Royal Navy ' the butchering of the officers aboard His Majesty's Frigate Hermione, 32 guns, in the West Indies in 1797. The author describes the events which end with the daring re-capture of the Hermione under the guns of Spanish forts, by 100 English sailors in six open boats in one of the most brilliant cutting-out expeditions in naval history.
