"A passionately felt, deeply poetic book. It has philosophy. It has humor. It has its share of nerve-tingling adventures...set down in a lean, racing prose, in a close-knit style of power and beauty."
THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOKREVIEW
Edward Abbey lived for three seasons in the desert at Moab, Utah, and what he discovered about the land before him, the world around him, and the heart that beat within, is a fascinating, sometimes raucous, always personal account of a place that has already disappeared, but is worth remembering and living through again and again.

Edward Abbey worked for sixteen years as a ranger with the National Park Service and National Forest Service, and is the author of Black Sun, The Monkey Wrench Gang, The Fool's Progress, and more than a dozen other books. He died in 1989.
