Abstract:

This book tells the story of the language of the Bounty mutineers and their
Polynesian consorts that developed on remote Pitcairn Island in the late 18th
century. Most of their descendants subsequently relocated to Norfolk Island.
It is an in-depth study of the complex linguistic, ecological and
sociohistorical forces that have been involved in the formation and subsequent
development of this unique endangered language on both islands.
