    Classic funny and entertaining anti-establishment tale of Southwestern environmentalist campers
  

*by H***K on Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2024*

Influential books of the 1960s included Carson's Silent Spring and Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb. Counterculture environmentalists were quick to grasp the implications, Hubbert's "peak oil" prediction, and concerns over pollution, litter, effects of the Vietnam War, automobile-dependent lifestyles, and nuclear energy. The "back to nature" theme was prevalent in the counterculture by the 1969 Woodstock festival, the first Earth Day in 1970 brought environmental concerns to the forefront.  Counterculture interest in ecology progressed well into the 1970s.  Released in 1975 Monkey Wrench Gang introduces us to George Washington Heyduke a Viet Nam vet.  He meets up with Seldom Seen Smith, a river rafting guide, Bonnie Abzug and flying Doc Sarvis, over a campfire they plot their revenge on over development & sprawl.  Claimed to be inspiration to several environmental movements of the time.

    Still Crazy, and Entertaining, after all these years.
  

*by N***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2015*

The Monkey Wrench Gang holds up well; is still entertaining and thought provoking.  All of the characters are flawed, but that may be the point.  Those of us who fit well into society are seldom eager to risk our comfortable lives in the service of a greater good.  Those of us who are marginalized, however, have less to lose and may be more likely to make political statements and take political actions.The adventures of George Hayduke, Doc Savis, Bonnie Abzug and Seldom Seen Smith as they attempt to fight back against development and the destruction of the West by destroying bulldozers, dams and the egos of their pursuers are cartoonishly entertaining.  Today, the idea of an environmentalist throwing a beer can out of a car window seems more than a little odd.  In 1975, however, Abby seemed to be combining the mythic image of the Marlborough man with some new age sensitivity to the environment to create characters  who both entertain and enlighten and have held up well for 40 years.If you are looking for a light read to entertain you on a flight or at the beach, and have missed it in the past, The Monkey Wrench Gang is a great choice.  It is also worth reading to get some historical knowledge and understand where Earth First got some of their ideas.  So enjoy the humor, the descriptions of the West and your trip back in time with one of the books that inspired the environmental movement.
