Eyes of Fire: The Last Voyage of the Rainbow Warrior
Auckland: Asia-Pacific Network, South Pacific Books Ltd
By David Robie
This is the tale of the last voyage of the bombed Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior to the Marshall Islands and the impact of atmospheric nuclear testing on Rongelap Atoll and in French Polynesia in 1985. Now questions hang over the future of both the Rongelapese and Tahitians who are still suffering for nuclear fallout.
The late Father Walter Hadye Lini, founding prime minister of Vanuatu, wrote the foreword. Greenpeace campaigner Bunny McDiarmid wrote the 2005 preface for this 20th anniversary edition.
