Actually, the Gordon Cook that you are referring to is a different Gordon Cook [Olympic sailor and the son of Stephen cook]. The writer of "We are not Afraid to Die..." is a sailor from Gloucestershire, England (and is not Canadian at all). The story has been taken from his voyage account "Schooner to the Southern Oceans". [Gordon Cook the Olympic sailor was born in 1978, and the voyage started in 1976!]
