I think the real story of the mutiny on the bounty is work reading. There is the Hollywood version and that was mostly handed down from the spin at the time. Fletcher Christian was a family friend of the Wordsworth's and so by association Byron, Shelly etc.
In reality, there were more loyal members of the crew left on board than mutineers when they cast Bligh adrift 3,500 miles from civilization, in an overloaded open boat but they made it back.
The mutineers, on the other hand, faired much worse. After they settled on Pitcairn, they were beset by divisions and murder. The last surviving mutineer having to institute a strict religious society to keep order.

Hobbsian view. Popular. About two or three decades ago, a group of British teenagers were actually shipwrecked on a deserted island. They were 15 months before being rescued. Nothing even close to Goldings (Hobbs) predictions took place. They devised a fairly egalitarian structure in order to survive.
