Edward Abbey Bestsellers
Three wild and suspenseful novels about standing your ground against the forces of destruction by the author of Desert Solitaire.
From the beloved author and passionate advocate for the wilderness, these three novels follow some very memorable characters in their battles against strip miners, clear cutters, and government agencies destroying the environment:
Fire on the Mountain: A New Mexico man faces off against everyone from the Atomic Energy Commission to the U.S. Air Force in a battle to keep his land . . .
“One of the very best writers to deal with the American West.”—The Washington Post
The Monkey Wrench Gang: A motley crew of saboteurs wreak outrageous havoc on the corporations destroying the wilderness in this “wildly funny” tale (The Houston Chronicle).
“Mixes comedy and chaos with enough chase sequences to leave you hungering for more.”—The San Francisco Chronicle
Hayduke Lives!: George Washington Hayduke, ex-Green Beret, was last seen clinging to a rock face in the wilds of Utah as an armed posse hunted him down for his eco-radical crimes. Now he’s back, with a fiery need for vengeance . . .
“Abbey’s latter-day Luddites, introduced in his novel The Monkey Wrench Gang, are back—and not a moment too soon.” —The New York Times
“I laughed out loud reading this book.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review
