The Monkey Wrench Gang

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. This collectible anniversary edition is both a tribute to Abbey’s legacy and a timeless call to arms for preserving the natural world. The introduction by Doug Peacock provides a window into his decades-long friendship with Abbey, and offers fresh insights into the novel’s lasting relevance and impact.
