Award-winning journalist David Robie was on board the Greenpeace environmental ship Rainbow Warrior on its last mission to Rongelap Atoll in May 1985 and stayed with the ship until it reached Auckland in July. Robie's account of this voyage - of the Marshall Islands community poisoned by nuclear fallout and of the fatal bombing of the Rainbow Warrior by the French secret service - remains a definitive work on Western treachery in the Pacific. But, it also shows the power of good people who were willing to stand up and be counted when others desperately needed their help.
