ISBN10: 1551521784, ISBN13: 9781551521787, [publisher: Arsenal Pulp Press, Vancouver] Softcover Paperback. In this vivid memoir, based on a manuscript originally written over 30 years ago, Robert Hunter depicts the first protest voyage in 1971 by the group that was later to become known as Greenpeace - now the most powerful ecological activist group in the world. The mission was in protest at nuclear testing the US government was carrying out on the small island of Amchitka in the Aleutian Islands - a geographically unstable area, highly prone to earthquakes, as well as a refuge of many endangered species. Includes photos of the mission by another original crew member. In this visceral memoir Robert Hunter vividly depicts the pecuilar odyssey that led to the formation of the most powerful environmental organisation in the world.
