by Laura Dakin —

The Sea Shepherd crew members take an aggressive direct-action approach to ending the slaughter of endangered and threatened wildlife in the world’s oceans.

The crews recognize that a vegan diet is a critical aspect of sea animal preservation, so the galleys of their fleet maintain a round-the-clock menu of vegan cuisine.

Inspired by the legendary Captain Paul Watson, their mission is carried out by the organization’s four anti-poaching vessels and their crews.

Dakin is chief cook on their flagship, the Steve Irwin, and in this book, she shares her adventures of feeding a hungry crew of 50 from morning until night.

Included are 80 of the crew’s favorite deliciously eclectic vegan recipes that have been modified for the family kitchen, as well as insight on the logistics of keeping a staff of hard-working, seafaring vegans well nourished and satisfied.

Interspersed throughout are crew members’ stories laced with the excitement and danger of stalking whaling vessels on the high seas, seasoned with the courageous dedication of everyone on board.
