In this gripping memoir, a young Toronto writer \u2013 without journalistic experience or credentials \u2013 travels to Central America at the height of the Contra War, on a personal quest to unravel the story of Eden Pastora, an obscure and independent guerrilla leader.<\/p>\n

In search of Pastora, the writer encounters the fighters, politicos, and journalists caught in an undercover war of information and misinformation. Stuck between the CIA and myriad revolutionary forces, he ultimately becomes involved in a web of subterfuge and murder. Plouhging the Seas<\/em> is in part a mystery, but more importantly is a poignant story about the destructive nature of ideology in Latin America.<\/p>\n
