To do it justice it was excellent! But if you've already seen Humphrey Bogart and Jose' Ferrer in the Cain Mutiny movie then you've already seen the best that can be done. This audio book has some more and some different information but it's really close. The actors did fine jobs but better than Bogart and Ferrer, no. I enjoyed it as a comparison read and if you can suspend your memory, don't criticize and just absorb, you will enjoy it.
I found the book to be an excellent depiction of the war.

The Caine Mutiny was an excellent novel. It gave a great insite on a sailor's life during the war. I found it to go into great discription at times. THis was often confusing and boring. Besides these detailed parts I found it to be intriguing.
