Author: Paul Watson |
Foreword by Martin Sheen In Seal Wars, Paul Watson chronicles the history of his relentless efforts to stop the senseless slaughter of Canadian harp seals. Over the years, to stop the slaughter of defenseless animals, Watson has rammed fishing trawlers and whaling ships, sailed into Soviet waters, and stood bravely on an ice floe between a baby seal and a seal boat. He has made numerous forays onto the ice floes with such celebrities as Brigitte Bardot, Farley Mowat, and Martin Sheen to guard the seals and bring awareness to his cause. His unwavering convictions helped him to survive sub-zero temperatures, debate politicians, encounter death threats, and strengthen his beliefs while in prison. Seal Wars tells the powerful and moving story of Watson”s remarkable life and his commitment to preserving the harp seals no matter what the personal cost and also discusses the history of sealing. To some people, Paul Watson is a rebel and a renegade; to others, he is more than a man, he is a hero. Links: |
