Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Rough, tough, combative . . . a passionately felt, deeply poetic book.Edwin Way Teale, The New York Times Book Review This is not primarily a book about the desert, writes Edward Abbey in his introduction. In recording my impressions of the natural scene I have striven above all for accuracy, since I believe that there is a kind of poetry, even a kind of truth, in simple fact. But the desertis a vast world, an oceanic world, as deep in its way and complex and various as the sea. Language makes a mighty loose net with which to go fishing for simple facts, when facts are infinite. If a man knew enough he could write a whole book about the juniper tree. Not juniper trees in general but that one particular juniper tree which grows from a ledge of naked sandstone near the old entrance to Arches National Monument. What I have tried to do then is something a bit different. Since you cannot get the desert into a book any more than a fisherman can haul up the sea with his nets, I have tried to create a world of words in which the desert figures more as medium than as material. Not imitation but evocation has been the goal. Reprint. Originally published: New York: McGraw-Hill, c1968.
