Ex-Green Beret George Hayduke has returned from war to find his beloved southwestern desert threatened by industrial development. Joining with Bronx exile and feminist saboteur Bonnie Abzug, wilderness guide and outcast Mormon Seldom Seen Smith, and libertarian billboard torcher Doc Sarvis, M.D., Hayduke is ready to fight the power--taking on the strip miners, clear-cutters, and the highway, dam, and bridge builders who are threatening the natural habitat. The Monkey Wrench Gang is on the move--and peaceful coexistence be damned

The best way to describe this book is simply "Badass." It reads like an action movie, but with a hefty amount of political passion. At first, it seems like the main character's sexism goes unchecked, but the female character ends up being the smartest/ most clever by a long shot. There really isn't much to say other than, read it. For fans of: the outdoors, dismantling capitalism, and the American southwest. #SummerReading
