Billy Budd

Billy Budd enjoys a life on the ocean waves but the evil Master-at-Arms, Claggart, loathes his fresh-faced innocence and accuses him of mutiny. From this false charge springs a naval tragedy. The action is set within the claustrophobic confines of a British man-of-war ship in the Summer of 1797. Here live the crew of the HMS Indomitable many of them pressed into service against their will. A classic story, well-suited to audio.
