Early Reviewers

“An excellent chronicling of his extraordinary and exemplary life.” —Captain Paul Watson, Whale Wars

“Garrick is celebrated for his dedication to making the world a better place in this thorough biography.” - Booklist

Garrick was key to high profile eco-campaigns beginning in the early 1970s counter-culture. A fearless activist, he ran across ice floes in -35 degree weather to protect baby harp seals and hiked through snowy BC mountains to protest a wolf cull.

He met Paul Watson, known as the founder of Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, and the brothers-in-arms shared in life altering adventures including the Wounded Knee occupation.

Garrick comes alive from Gilbert's use of his deeply insightful and humorous writing, unpublished letters, 150 journals and her extensive interviews with him. The book is illustrated with archival images and Garrick's own drawings.
