Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Michel Cousteau inicia esta exploración con una interrogante sobre su padre: «Si nunca pude entenderlo del todo cuando estaba vivo, entonces ¿qué me hace pensar que podré lograrlo ahora que se ha ido?». Con esta premisa, el hijo del legendario Jacques-Yves Cousteau emprende un viaje en el que arribará a diversos puertos en la vida de su progenitor: su infancia, su familia, los momentos de celebridad, los de revelación, también los de naufragio y tempestades. Una travesía a la vida del hombre que le mostró al mundo las profundidades de nuestro planeta. Esta biografía y bitácora de navegación nos muestra al célebre capitán del Calypso fuera de su inseparable cámara y, cuando es posible, en tierra firme. Es la postal más íntima de Jacques-Yves Cousteau, configurada en la pluma de quien lo miró como leyenda, como genio, como celebridad y como padre.
Download or read book My Father the Captain written by Jean-Michel Cousteau and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2010-05-18 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every legend, there is a legacy. In the life and career of undersea explorer Jacques Cousteau, that legacy beats in the heart of the sea and in the heart of his son, Jean-Michel, the noted French environmentalist, educator and documentary film producer who has spent most of his adult life nurturing the work of his famous father. In My Father, The Captain, Jean-Michel Cousteau takes an open and intimate look at the life he shared with his father, and the legend he has taken it upon himself to carry. In so doing, he hopes to shed new and meaningful light on the life and work of a man who inspired millions to reconsider our relationship with the sea and its creatures--and, in the process, to understand a little more about himself and his family as well. "Captain Cousteau was a complicated man," the younger Cousteau writes. "He was a man of many different personalities, many different moods. But this is how it is with all great men, yes? We know the public mask, but it is the private face that reveals a man's true character. It is the man we know when the cameras are not filming." My Father, The Captain is shot-through with new material and fresh insights into the life and mind of a man who helped to jump-start a global conservation effort that continues to flourish. Jean-Michel Cousteau and his collaborator, New York Times best-selling author Daniel Paisner, offer an intimate reappraisal of the many touchstone moments Jean-Michel shared with his father, as well as the seminal moments from his father's life that have become part of the Cousteau family lore and legend.
