The Voyage of the Golden Rule: An Experiment with Truth is a non-fiction book written by Albert Bigelow that chronicles the journey of a group of pacifists who set out to challenge the United States government's nuclear weapons testing program in the 1950s. The book follows the crew of the Golden Rule, a small sailboat, as they attempt to sail into the restricted waters of the Pacific Ocean where nuclear testing was taking place. The crew's mission was to peacefully protest the testing and raise awareness about the dangers of nuclear weapons. The book provides a detailed account of the challenges and obstacles the crew faced during their journey, including sabotage, arrests, and imprisonment. The crew's commitment to non-violent resistance and their willingness to put their lives on the line for their beliefs is a central theme of the book. Bigelow's writing style is engaging and descriptive, and he provides historical context for the events he describes. The book is a powerful testament to the importance of peaceful protest and the impact that small groups of committed individuals can have on the world. It is a must-read for anyone interested in social justice, non-violent resistance, or the history of the anti-nuclear movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
