Fortunate Adversities of William Bligh

William Bligh is best known as the cause of the mutiny on the Bounty. He was also the victim of two other mutinies. Yet when he died he was a vice-admiral of the British navy. How was that possible? If ever a person learned to profit from adversity, it was William Bligh.
