Annotation |
A series of essays from a self-described "grump environmentalist." The author journeys from Mono Lake to the Mojave Desert, through the Humboldt National Forest, and across the Grand Canyon, recording his observations as he goes. Descriptions of the natural beauty are interlaced with sharp criticisms of the state and federal agencies responsible for preserving public lands, water, and forests. For high school and adult readers. Californiana Collection.
