Ben Stewart is a former Guardian Student Journalist of the Year and is now head of media at Greenpeace. He was one of the six protesters cleared of criminal damage to Kingsnorth power station in a groundbreaking trial whose verdict the New York Times described as one of the seminal moments of 2008. He is the author of Don’t Trust, Don’t Fear, Don’t Beg: The Extraordinary Story of the Arctic 30 (The New Press). He lives in London.
Kirkus says that Ben Stewart "conveys the passion and idealism of the activists... and the determination of Vladimir Putin to make an example of them."
