About this book

The novel that inspired the now-classic film The Caine Mutinyand the hit Broadway play The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, Herman Wouk's boldly dramatic, brilliantly entertaining novel of life-and mutiny-on a Navy warship in the Pacific theater was immediately embraced, upon its original publication in 1951, as one of the first serious works of American fiction to grapple with the moral complexities and the human consequences of World War II. In the intervening half century, The Caine Mutinyhas become a perennial favorite of readers young and old, has sold millions of copies throughout the world, and has achieved the status of a modern classic.
