About this Item

McPhee's telling of the confrontations of militant environmentalist David Brower (founder of Friends of the Earth, etc) over mineral exploration on Western wilderness lands, development of Hilton Head oceanfront, and the damning of the Grand Canyon. Signed by the book's subject - the Archdruid himself, David Brewer - on the half tile with an unrelated inscription dated 1975 on the front pastedown from an identifiable individual to Springfield MA conservationist Helen C White, for whom a conservation area in that New England city is named. This title signed by Brewer is quite uncommon. Dustjacket spine a wee sunnned, else near fine all over.

Store Description

Johnnycake Books trades in rare and collectible books of most kinds, principally in fields of literature, illustrated, childrens, architecture/design, gardening and photography. We try to offer books that are a little unusual, offbeat and unexpected: most have a strong visual or design appeal. Our descriptions present our inventory as creatively and colorfully as possible, with occassional editorial commentary. We regard condition of our books as critical to our service: most are very good or better, in collectible condition. We are generally conservative in describing a book, even if that means it doesn't sound as good as it actually might be. We welcome your comments directly at johnnycake@snet.net or visit our website www.johnnycakebooks.com. Best wishes in your book collecting. Dan Dwyer
