Mutiny
What it is made of
The source
Charts, Knots and Mutinies
Portolan charts on vellum, cut across by sheaves of rhumb lines, with the fleur-de-lis pinned to the north and a cross marking the east. Octants and sextants in ebony and brass: graduated limb, vernier, mirror on the axis and smoked glass shades swung down across the path of the light. And the vocabulary of the fo’c’sle: square two-colour flags, knotted rope, anchors, swallows, a pig and a cockerel, and HOLD FAST spread across eight knuckles.
