Description of this Book

This is a history of the people of Pitcairn Island over the last two hundred years. The first inhabitants were a group Tahitian and English men and women who found safe haven on the island after the Bounty mutiny. This account tells of the "racism and greed" that dominated their lives and the bloody way these conflicts were resolved. Nicholson also tells of the subsequent generations and the puritanical life they now live.
