Don't Trust, Don't Fear, Don't Beg: The Extraordinary Story of the Arctic 30 by Ben Stewart

4.0

I have been volunteering for Greenpeace when this happened already so I was fairly familiar with the story, which might be the reason why I was not at the edge of my seat when reading this. I did like the book, the story of the Arctic30 is gripping for sure, but yet the story-telling did not have me immersed in the book. I cannot quite put my finger on why. Nonetheless, the actual story is amazing, the details about what went on in the prisons, the behind the scenes knowledge on what the activists endured is very interesting and mind-boggling to read about. I would recommend the book for (aspiring) activists for any cause, yet, it was not one of my top reads for sure...
