Über den Autor
Guy Grieve is an adventurer and entrepreneur whose fight for sustainability has led him to start up a much-acclaimed ethical fishing company on the Isle of Mull (he dives for the scallops personally). The year that he spent living alone in a cabin in Alaska became the book Call of the Wild, and his foraging expeditions with chef Thomasina Miers became the Channel 4 TV series and book Wild Gourmets; he went on to co-present Living with Monkeys for BBC1. Sea Legs is the story of his family's voyage around the Caribbean and across the Atlantic in a second-hand sailing boat. Guy Grieve lives on Mull with his wife and two sons.@guygrieve / ethicalshellfishcompany.co.uk/guy-grieve
