The Monkey Wrench Gang
"The heron in the canyon, a bighorn ram on the cliff above, one lean coyote on the rim across the river hear the sound of a howl, the song of a wolf, rise in the twilight stillness and spread through the emptiness of the desert evening. One long and prolonged, deep and dangerous, wild archaic howl, rising and rising and rising on the quiet air."
ADVANCE READING COPY of the first edition of Edward Abbey's environmental classic.
"Abbey's novel The Monkey Wrench Gang (1975) recounts the exploits of a band of guerrilla environmentalists; both it and Desert Solitaire became handbooks of the environmental movement" (Britannica).
Philadelphia: Lippincott, 1975. Octavo, original yellow wrappers. Minor soiling, very slight fading to spine; an excellent copy.
