To learn more about the book, all you have to do is turn to page 68 in this magazine. We’ve included an excerpt for your reading pleasure. We decided to feature the chapter on the Galápagos Islands because we have a companion article by author Sid Dobrin showcasing the horrendous illegal fishing fleets — mostly from China — that have decimated the waters of the Galápagos. It’s a
horrific conservation situation in a place that should be protected at the highest standards. There’s so much more in the pages of this issue that I don’t know where to begin. So, I’ll let you scour the table of contents and find the articles that interest you the most. As always, thanks for your support. Tight lines and fair winds.
