RGSSA farewells inaugural Library Research Fellow

In July we bid farewell to the RGSSA’s inaugural Library Research Fellow, Professor Don Albert (Sam Houston State University) and his wife Julie Albert. Don presented a talk on the project he has been working on while in Adelaide over the past month at our monthly lecture series. He examined the two major and quite different accounts of the movements of HMS Bounty after the mutiny prepared by Henry E. Maude and Brian N. Hooker. It was remarkable that Henry Maude’s son and distinguished RGSSA member Dr Alaric Maude was in the audience. We wish Don and Julie safe travels as they return to Texas on Saturday!
