"Prior to his career at the SI, and running parallel with it for the rest of his life, was Ripley's work as an ornithologist, begun in New Guinea in the 1930s, continued through his PhD from Harvard in 1943, and culminating in his landmark thirty-year project documenting the bird life of India. His lifelong passion for ornithology led him to positions of leadership in worldwide nature conservation. In the midst of these endeavors he was recruited in 1944 to the Office of Strategic Services, a Yalie club at the outset that became the forerunner of the modern CIA. Posted to Ceylon, he recruited and ran agents who reported from and infiltrated Japanese-held Southeast Asia." (from UPNE).

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition.

Includes Dedication; Preliminary Page Quotes; Acknowledgments; Introduction: Sanderling's Mission; Bibliography; Index; Photo Acknowledgments; and A Note About the Author. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. Signed and inscribed by the author in thin black Sharpie on the second free front endpaper. "Roger Stone - conservationist, chronicler of the natural world, and eager sailor - set off in the summer of 1986 from Camden, Maine, in a 38-foot cutter called Sanderling, heading south. In April 1988, he and his crew completed the adventurous 8,000 mile cruise that took them all the way to Rio. Their plan and their accomplishment: to assess, from a valuable and neglected perspective, the environmental crisis afflicting the entire Atlantic coast of North and South America; to report on how that coast has changed in the five hundred years since the first Europeans arrived; and to evaluate its prospects for the future. Stone's gripping account of Sanderling's odyssey gives firsthand evidence of the many kinds of pollution besetting the eastern seaboard. He highlights the work being done by determined local people whose livelihoods depend on a healthy ocean - fishermen, scientists, and others who are struggling to conserve their threatened shores. He carries us from New England and the rivers and bays of the Chesapeake region to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and Georgia's Golden Isles, from the Bahamas and Cuba's hitherto forbidden north shore to the development-obsessed islands of the Caribbean - and finally, in a 1,640-mile passage against wind and current, to Brazil, and further experiences along its little-visited coast. All along the way from Maine to Rio, Stone talked with scientists, conservationists, and experts, some of whom we see joining Sanderling as passengers and becoming part of the adventure, adding their new insights on the coast's decline. And, in rueful counterpoint, Stone reminds us how the unspoiled Atlantic shores were described in the journals of early navigators. The Voyage of the Sanderling is both a warning and an encouragement: the Atlantic coast is in trouble, but if we learn how to commit our energies to its restoration, it will recover." - from the inner front jacket flap.
