About DUSA Advertising Contact Us Edward Abbey - A Man Hard To Talk About - By Kent Duryee Edward Abbey was born in Indiana, Pennsylvania, near Home, at the end of a "red dog, dirt road" on January 29, 1927. From this humble beginning in the smoky, shaggy Appalachian hills came one of the most powerful voices of the desert Southwest. Abbey was a writer, philosopher and artist. However, attempts to define Abbey more specifically as an "environmentalist" or "nature writer," or with any other label for that matter, always end in frustration. He was a difficult character to pin down, a loose cannon in the truest sense of the term. A Man of Contradiction If nothing else, Abbey exemplified the word "contradiction." Always one to rage against the burgeoning population of the Southwest, Abbey produced five offspring with three of his five wives. An angry defender of wild nature, he often wrote of his penchant for throwing beer cans out of his pickup truck window as he traveled down desert highways. (This was not only a means of measuring distance, he said, but also a protest against the domination of nature by the machine.) Always a champion of the oppressed and marginalized and a foe of industrializing and militarizing the deserts, he nevertheless opposed Mexican immigration into the United States. A liberal, he nevertheless opposed gun control.

25. Edward Abbey - Honesty In A Dishonest Age This page is dedicated to one of my heroes, the environmentalist edward abbey. http://www.rjgeib.com/thoughts/abbey/abbey.html

Edward Abbey HONESTY IN A DISHONEST AGE The following is one of the last entries in Abbey's diary, written shortly before his death on March 2, 1989, in Tucson, Arizona. "Why book reviewers hate my books: "Because the books are really no good? Perhaps. But I think I've got a better explanation. Almost all reviewers, these days, are members of and adherents to some anxious particular sect or faction. I.e., they are lesbians and New Agers or fem-libbers or (even worse) male fem-libbers or technophiles or self-hating white liberals or right wing conservatives or Growth maniacs or Negroes or female Negroes or Third-World lesbian militant Negro poetesses or closet Marxists (Marxoids) or futurologists or academical specialists or Chicano idealogues or ballerinas or Kowboy Kultists or Kerouac Kultists or Henry James Minimalist Perfectionists or one-tenth Chippewa "Native American" Indians or at very least and all-inclusive Official Chickenshit Correct-Thinking Liberals etc. etc. "As such, any member of any one of those majority minorities is going to find for certain a few remarks in any of my books that will offend/enrage "s/he" to the marrow, leading inevitably in turn, on the part of such sectarian book reviewers, to a denunciation not merely of the offending passage, but of the entire book, and not merely of the book, but of the author too."

Z Edward Abbey Writer Edward Abbey was a writer who became a cult figure and literary voice for environmental activists, especially in the southwestern part of the United States. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, Abbey first travelled west in 1944. Following a military hitch in Italy after World War II, he went to college in New Mexico, then joined the National Park Service. His second novel, The Brave Cowboy (1958), earned good reviews and got the attention of Hollywood star Kirk Douglas , who made it into the 1962 film Lonely Are The Brave . Abbey's 1968 book Desert Solitaire recounted his experiences as a park ranger in Utah and became one of his best-known works, second only to his 1975 novel of radical environmentalism, The Monkey Wrench Gang . In addition to his literary achievements, Abbey was known for his public orneriness over environmental issues, and is considered a hero among activists. His other books include Fire on the Mountain The Fool's Progress (1988) and the autobiographical Confessions of a Barbarian Extra credit : In 1985 an anniversary edition of The Monkey Wrench Gang was published, with illustrations by cartoonist

RSS Font: S S+ S++ Photo composite of Edward Abbey In what may be our final chance to sample his previously unavailable work, Milkweed has now published Abbey's selected letters as "Postcards From Ed: Dispatches and Salvos From an American Iconoclast," a book that mostly reads as one last series of broadsides against the greed and lust for power that were the enemies of all he cherished. It arrives at a strange and foreboding moment, when many of Abbey's fears and premonitions have come to pass. What little wilderness remains has come under brutal assault by oil, gas, coal, timber, mining and agricultural interests, both in America and elsewhere. Our government claims an unassailable right to spy on anyone it chooses; habeas corpus is apparently moot. Our military is bogged down in a feckless, asinine war. The planet is in the midst of warming irreversibly, and none of our politicians have the guts to be honest about what this means for our future.

Sheryl Cunningham Book review Journeys Beyond the Wall Abbey, Edward. Beyond the Wall . New York, NY. Holt, Rinehart, and Winston. 1984, 203 p. $14.95 Is it possible to yearn for miles upon miles of sand, rock, and temperatures that soar above 100 degrees Fahrenheit? According to the gruff naturalist and angry conservationist Edward Abbey the answer is yes. In his book of essays, Beyond the Wall, he takes the reader on a journey through what some might consider no-man's land- the desert of the American southwest. Abbey most definitely takes the reader beyond walls and into his life and explorations as a self-proclaimed "desert rat". He walks through the canyonlands of Utah, hikes across the dunes of Northern Mexico, rafts the Colorado River through Glen Canyon and also rafts through the Alaskan wilderness. Abbey's tone throughout these ten essays is one of wonder at the harsh beauty of nature and a contained rage at those who destroy it with technological "progress". In his essay, "The Damnation of a Canyon", Abbey remembers a past when nature was for everyone, not limited to the affluent who can afford the now

His inability to keep the facts straight, even as a young man, destined him to fiction writing. Abbey would later become the prosperous author of numerous books, namely Desert Solitaire The Monkey Wrench Gang One Life at a Time, Please , and A Fool's Progress , among others. In this 1988 interview with Don Swaim, Abbey speaks of growing up in a farm town outside of Pittsburgh, his career as a writer, and his passion for the environment.
