[M] THE SPITHEAD MUTINY, 1797
THE SPITHEAD MUTINY, 1797
six contemporary issues of the London Chronicle between 20th April–15th May 1797, complete and with tax stamps
(6)
The Spithead Mutiny lasted from 16 April to 15 May 1797 and was a simple, peaceful, successful strike action to address economic grievances. The subsequent Nore Mutiny was a more radical action, articulating political ideals, and failed. When the Spithead situation calmed, Admiral Lord Howe intervened to negotiate an agreement that saw a royal pardon for all crews.
