Were the alarming events on board U.S.S. Somers in 1842 actually the only "mutiny" in the U.S. Navy? Were they a mutiny at all? Was the harsh punishment levied upon three suspected plotters--one the troublesome son of a Cabinet member--warranted? The incident inspired parts of several Herman Melville works and the creation of the Naval Academy, and its aftermath was the subject of almost-obsessive public interest. . . .Join us as beloved historian of crime and the macabre Greg Williams dives into this fascinating piece of Naval history.
