Caine Mutiny
About This Novel
In 1944, before World War II ended, the USS Kane was floating on the surface of the South Pacific; it was on this old-fashioned warship that was almost scrapped that the most famous mutiny in the history of the U. S. Navy broke out! This was no longer just a mutiny as it was understood in the old days - swords flashed, captains imprisoned, desperate sailors turned outlaws. Is the mutinous party headed by Vice-Captain Malik a hero with a sense of responsibility and justice who saves the ship from danger, or is it a thug who conspires to rebel? And Captain Queeg, is he a willful dictator, or is he a coward and a fearful man? Willie Keith became the threader of this story. The last captain of the Kane was like the key that opened the magic door, unfolding the entire incident in front of us layer by layer.
