episode 55: HILF 55 - Mutiny on the Bounty with Scott Edwin Williams
Come aboard the ill-fated Bounty with Dawn and guest, Scott Edwin Williams. Scott is a school-teacher and author of the fantastic book series, LIGHTBULB MOMENTS IN HUMAN HISTORY which looks at history with a nod to both humor, and a hope for the future. Together they trace the origins and outcomes of not only the infamous Captain Bligh, but the mutineers, their Tahitian lovers, and even the blind fiddler...
