The Monkey Wrench Gang -
Edward Abbey
1975 - J. B. Lippincott Company, Philadelphia and New York - First Edition
‘Hell of a place to lose a cow,’ Smith thinks to himself while roaming through the canyonlands of southern Utah. ‘Hell of a place to lose your heart. Hell of a place... to lose. Period’.
‘Since the publication of The Monkey Wrench Gang, Mr. Abbey has become an underground cult hero.’ - New York Times A fine first edition of this inspirational and incendiary call to protect the American wilderness, by its prickliest and most outspoken environmentalist. A ‘comic extravaganza’ based on a group of misfits who join forces with a Vietnam vet on a rafting trip down the Colorado River, and together they wander off to wage war on the big yellow machines. ‘Ribald, outrageous and, in fact, scandalous.’ - Smithsonian.
