Greenpeace Captain: Bizarre wanderings on the Rainbow Warrior Peter Willcox

In over 40 years as a senior captain for Greenpeace International, Peter Willcox has been in the vanguard of the international environmentalist movement. He has led crews into battle against whale killers, nuclear testing sites, and deep sea drillers. He has confronted naval warships, faced a bombing attack on the iconic Rainbow Warrior, and endured imprisonment for peacefully protesting Russian oil drilling in Antarctica. This is his story.

-- Caroline Lucas, MP, co-leader of the Green Party

'It's no accident that the world is taking action to save the whales and rainforests, tackle climate change and toxic pollution; it's because people such as Peter Willcox are making it happen. A great read. '

'There is warmth and excitement in Peter Willcox's thrilling account of his adventures as Greenpeace Captain. His book brought back memories not only of voyages shared, but also of Peter as a brave exemplar.'
