He has led the most compelling and dangerous Greenpeace actions to bring international attention to the destruction of our environment. From the imprisonment of his crew by Russian Commandos to international conspiracies involving diamond smuggling, gun-trading and Al-Qaeda, he has braved the unimaginable and triumphed. This is his story - which begins when he was a young man sailing with Pete Seeger and continues right up to his becoming the environmentalist he is today"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Memoirs.
