The Mutiny of the Elsinore (novel)

The Mutiny of the Elsinore is a novel by the American writer Jack London first published in 1914.

The novel is partially based on London's voyage around Cape Horn on the Dirigo in 1912.

[2] After the death of the captain, the crew of a ship split between the two senior surviving mates in a mutiny, and eventually come under control of the narrator.

It also includes some strong right views which were part of London's complex world-view.

A 1936 French adaptation Les mutinés de l'Elseneur directed by Pierre Chenal and a 1937 British film The Mutiny of the Elsinore were both made in sound.
