Back To Earth Talk Index Abbey, Edward Edward Abbey was a denizen of the Southwest desert and canyon country and the author of numerous fiction and non-fiction books including: Desert Solitaire, The Brave Cowboy, The Monkey Wrench Gang, Fool's Progress , and Hayduke Lives! Confessions of a Barbarian , published in 1994 consists of selections from his journals edited by David Petersen and is an interesting book, exciting, provocative, and melancholy in turn. Edward Abbey died in 1989. To the east, under the spreading sunrise, are more mesas, more canyons, league on league of red cliff and arid tablelands, extending through purple haze over the bulging curve of the planet to the ranges of Colorado - a sea of desert. Desert Solitaire We are obliged to spread the news, painful and bitter though it may be for some to hear, that all living things on earth are kindred. Ibid. For there is a cloud on my horizon. A small dark cloud no bigger than my hand. Its name is progress.

    Amazon.com With language as colorful as a Canyonlands sunset and a perspective as pointed as a prickly pear, Cactus Ed captures the heat, mystery, and surprising bounty of desert life. Desert Solitaire is a meditation on the stark landscapes of the red-rock West, a passionate vote for wilderness, and a howling lament for the commercialization of the American outback. Book Description "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."

    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."

    Rhonda L. Tintle, Desert Solitaire Reviewed http://www.hilwerda.com/desertsolitaire.htm Abbey, Edward. Desert Solitaire: A Season in the Wilderness.( New
    York , McGraw-Hill) 1968. Review by Rhonda Tintle During the 1960’s Edward Abbey worked as a park ranger in Arches National Monument near the town of Moab in southeast Utah Desert Solitaire is about his hikes, his observations and philosophy, his trailer and his beer drinking. He writes about his insights and his experiences with the tourists he distains. Abbey often roved around the remote southeastern Utah canyons by himself, making annotations and associations that resulted from his solitary life there. Life in the desert is dangerous; death in the desert is a daily possibility. The book is a kind of journal and Abbey catalogs an assortment of birds, plants, rock formations, and water areas. Solitaire is an elegy, a mournful, reflective poem, a tombstone for a place called the Arches National Monument The book is not a travel guide, it is a memorial, an epitaph, because what he is writing about is “already gone or going under fast.”

    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

    A Mexican Writer Comes To Terms With The Ghost Of Edward Abbey.
    B y L u i s A l b e r t o U r r e a I'M DRIVING ED Abbey's Cadillac to Denver. It has moldered away in a dirt alley off Tucson's venerable main drag, and now it's going to reside in a pricey Republican enclave on the compromised high plains outside the mile-high city. Of course, if I told you which 'burb it was, I'd have to kill you. A fire-engine red '75 Eldorado, it's been parked for a year behind Ed's pal Buffalo Medicine's house, accumulating a thick coat of dust and a calligraphy of cat and raccoon tracks across its massive hood. The cables have fallen loose in the engine compartment, the generator's shot, weeds have choked the wheels, and the ragtop's in sad shape. Local writers cruise by occasionally, tip their gimme caps, raise a can of Coors, and drive away. Their wheels churn up the alley dirt, adding another layer of dust to the Caddie. Just like Ed's memory. Buffalo Medicine has possibly rooked El Piloto, a devotee of the Abbeyite Order, by selling him the car for money which might or might not be too much. Opinions vary. It all depends on where you're positioned in the continuing Ed debate. In Tucson, the debate is quite personal, since locals trade Ed sightings like baseball cards. Ed AbbeySasquatch.
