A wildly funny, infinitely wise, near to tragic tale of man against the bog god machine." --Houston Chronicle Edward Abbey's classic tale of rebellion, camaraderie, and environmental justice--a prescient, comic masterpiece of destructive mayhem and outrageous civil disobedience that speaks to us today--now available in a commemorative fiftieth anniversary edition. 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 with 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. Featuring a new introduction by one of today's most exciting contemporary writers, this beautiful and collectible anniversary edition of the environmental cult classic is a tribute to Abbey's enduring legacy and a timeless call to arms for preserving the natural world.
