Great stuff. Telling of his summer and fall as ranger at Arches Nat’l Monument... before it was "ruined" by road, water, and electricity. Desc of the Maze and others. Some hilariously dry humor. See "Edward Abbey excerpts.fm"”
“I've read this before, but since I'll be vacationing in the Southwest in July, and starting at Arches National Park, it seems an appropriate thing to read while I'm there.”
