The ship is black, flies under a jolly roger, and carries members of the Sea Shepherd Society, a radical environmental group who are willing to die to stop illegal whale hunting.The Sea Shepherd ship, led by the charismatic Captain Paul Watson-a modern-day anti-Ahab- takes extreme risks in defense of whales and ratchets up the stakes. The ship is almost sunk twice, once in a force gale. Heller re-creates a nail-biting showdown when Watson and the crew attempt to ram an enormous Japanese whaling ship on the high seas, trying to tear open its hull with a steel blade called a "can opener." The crews on board both ships know that there will be no assistance in this desolate part of the ocean. In thirty-five-foot seas, it is a deadly game of Antarctic chicken and a fast-paced, rollicking adventure in which the stakes cannot be higher. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Heller, Peter,|d1959-|xTravel|zAntarctic Ocean. 600 10 Heller, Peter,|d1959-|vDiaries. 650 0 Whaling|zAntarctic Ocean. 650 0 Whales|xConservation|zAntarctic Ocean. 700 1 Boles, James. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 10756412?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781400125272_180.jpeg
