Giveaway - Greenpeace Captain - Peter Willcox

I've got a fantastic giveaway  for those who love memoirs - and the planet.

Greenpeace Captain: My Adventures in Protecting the Future of Our Planet by Peter Willcox with Ronald B. Weiss, releases today.

From the publisher, Thomas Dunne Books:

"Peter Willcox has been a Captain for Greenpeace for over 30 years. He would never call himself a hero, but he is recognized on every ocean and continent for devoting his entire life to saving the planet. He has led the most compelling and dangerous Greenpeace actions to bring international attention to the destruction of our environment. From the globally televised imprisonment of his crew, the "Arctic 30," by Russian Commandos to international conspiracies involving diamond smuggling, gun-trading and Al-Qaeda, Willcox 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 iconic environmentalist he is today. His daring adventures and courageous determination will inspire readers everywhere." Read an excerpt of Greenpeace Captain.

And if you'd like to read Greenpeace Captain, I have a copy to giveaway to one lucky reader. Enter using the Rafflecopter form below. Open to US only, no PO boxes please. Ends May 7/16.

I have always admired Greenpeace's activists. I have followed Paul Watson for some time and would enjoy reading about Peter Willcox. The work they do - I have no words that would suit.

Greenpeace was started in my home country of Canada and even there their methods are controversial. Many people are big fans but they have plenty of legitimate detractors as well. I think I'd enjoy Peter's story, thanks for the chance to win this book.
