The Outlaw Ocean: Journeys Across the Last Untamed Frontier by Ian Urbina

adventurous dark informative sad medium-paced

4.0

This was a hefty book in many ways - the length, the topics, and realities of what happens in international waters. This book covers a variety of activities that happen out in the ocean that many of us have no idea goes on - human trafficking, sea slavery, illegal fishing, extensive environmental harm, piracy, and so much more. I was riveted by this journalistic storytelling and there were sections that I couldn't put down and it felt like a movie versus real life.
