Note that the source of this is Bligh's journal, preserved as part of Admiralty records.
Multiple authors have used this material, such as Gavin Kennedy in his biography of Bligh.
NavList relevance: chapters on Bligh's navigational skills in the south seas with Cook, and in his extraordinary open boat voyage.
