Editorial Reviews
Mixes comedy and chaos with enough chase sequences to leave you hungering for more. —San Francisco Chronicle
“Narrator Michael Kramer’s…ease with fast-paced storytelling adds excitement to the chase scenes amid forbidding Utah terrain. The Monkey Wrench Gang is a classic in fringe political writing. Kramer does justice to this story of old-school radical environmentalism as he brings it to the ears of a new generation of activists.” —AudioFile
“Ribald, outrageous, and, in fact, scandalous.” —Smithsonian
“Mixes comedy and chaos with enough chase sequences to leave you hungering for more.” —San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Abbey (1927–1989) was born in Pennsylvania but spent most of his life in the American Southwest. He was one of the country’s foremost defenders of the natural environment, and his
most famous work Desert Solitaire, decried the waste of America’s wilderness. He was educated at the University of New Mexico and the University of Edinburgh. His many books include The
Monkey Wrench Gang, Brave Cowboy, The Fool’s Progress, and Down the River.
