This piece would need to be edited -- there are some references to the political campaigns and the goings-on when this piece was produced.
The guts of the piece is the interview with the author of "The True Story of the Mutiny on the Bounty" by Caroline Alexander. The interview flowed well and was interesting and last from about 6:30 to 21:30. This piece would fit in any historical show, especially history maritime or perhaps a show about works of literature and oft-told stories.
The book sounds interesting. Caroline put this into context that I hadn't heard before.
Other things in the show -- how the French lampooned LBJ the way they are dealing with GWB.
