Paperback. Condition: New. Reprint. 480 pp. Duodecimo [20.1 cm]. Yellow paper wraps with graphic on cover. From the publisher: "When Ex-Green Beret George Hayduke returns from war to find his beloved Southwestern desert threatened by industrial development, it?s up to him to take the noxious bull by the horns. Joining forces wit…h Bronx exile and feminist saboteur Bonnie Abzug, wilderness guide and outcast Mormon Seldom Seen Smith, and libertarian billboard torcher Doc Sarvis, Hayduke is primed to fight the power. Strip miners, clear-cutters, and highway, dam, and bridge builders beware! Now, fifty years after the original publication, the Monkey Wrench Gang is on the move again. This collectible anniversary edition is both a tribute to Abbey?s legacy and a timeless call to arms for preserving the natural world. The introduction by Doug Peacock provides a window into his decades-long friendship with Abbey, and offers fresh insights into the novel?s lasting relevance and impact.".

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. One corner lightly bumped; the dustjacket has about three small nicks. Else in Very Good+ condition in Very Good+ dustjacket. Photographs from a generation who came to the canyon country of the Four Corners as park rangers, teachers, river guides, naturalists, an…d backpackers ? for personal fulfillment rather than as artists or commercial photographers. Everything they know about themselves and the land is distilled in these photographs. They transcend the literal. The common thread is light?the magical, iridescent light that happens when clear air, naked rock, and sun collide. The book pairs thematic portfolios (Rock, Water, Canyons, Mesas, Plateaus, Mountains, and Time) with words from a century of the region's most eloquent writers. Photographers include Mary Allen, Tom Bean, Michael Collier, Jeff Gnass, Philip Hyde, William Neill, Galen Rowell, John Running, Jeremy Schmidt, Tom Till, Stephen Trimble, Larry Ulrich, and Mark Zarn. About 100 Color Photos (illustrator).
