Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Uncorrected Proof. xi, 221pp. Octavo [21cm]; plain printed wrappers. Significant printing errors within: pages xi, 59-60, 119-120, and 179-180 are unreadable, borderline illegible, where the printer's ink ran low or did not take to the paper. Occasional other (printed) editor's/printer's markings a…ssociated with the proofing/printing process are in-text here as well. Some light shelf wear, corners bumped. Uncorrected proof from the publisher. From the rear cover: "With the slogan "no compromise in defense of Mother Earth," Dave Foreman cofounded the radical environmental group Earth First! in 1981. Its goals: to give voice to a new vision of wilderness and to encourage action now to stop the wholesale destruction of our few remaining wild places. Through his work with Earth First!, Foreman has become one of America's most respected proponents of wilderness preservation. In "Confessions of an Eco-Warrior," Foreman writeswith passion and unarguable logicabout his beliefs, his trials, and his hopes for a wilder world. He insists that the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance and that wilderness must exist for its own sake, not just for the pleasure of humans; he explains why he is willing to risk his life and his freedom to try to stop environmental destruction; and he proposes sweeping changes in National Forest regulations to reverse the cataclysmic decline in wilderness life. "Confessions of an Eco-Warrior" is a fearless, controversial, and provocative book that will set the course of environmentalism for the decades ahead.".

In den WarenkorbMagazine. Zustand: Very Good +. 55pp. Quarto [26.5cm]; saddle-stapled. Spine is mildly rubbed and sunned and edges are just a touch creased. Address label of original recipient affixed to the rear wrap. "No Compromise in Defense of Mother Earth!" - Earth First! Earth First! is a group of radical environmentalists that formed in…the American Southwest in the spring of 1980, founded by Dave Foreman, Mike Roselle, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, and Ron Kezar, among others. Earth First! quickly came to national attention with their "cracking" of Glen Canyon Dam activist stunt, which was performed and filmed in the spring of 1981. Edward Abbey is considered to be the "literary father" of the group, and the monkey wrench is their ever-present emblem and tool. "Earth First! is the beginning of the new, bold environmental movement. And 'Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal' is its voice" (Dave Foreman, 1980s). The late-1980s and early-1990s were a tumultuous time for Earth First! Law enforcement cracked down on its members, and various internal issues and factions began to form within the group. Earth First! embraced non-hierarchical structures and organic methods of organization and growth, while continuing to focus on direct action in defense of wilderness as its primary focus. Through the 1990's, 2000's, and 2010's, the journal continued to be published in various forms under the direction of a diverse and rotating collective of voices from within the broad Earth First! movement. Regular print publication of the Earth First! Journal under this title seems to have ceased sometime in the early 2020s, though the movement still survives and maintains a presence online and on social media. Includes articles discussing the UK Badger Cull, First Nations Earth Defense and ALF (Animal Liberation Front) Fur Farm Busts in the Western U.S.

In den WarenkorbMagazine. Zustand: Very Good. 56pp. Octavo [8.5" x 5.5"]; saddle-stapled black and white sheets in color cardstock wraps, zine-style. Sealing stickers (for mailing) adhered to covers. Some light rubbing and general wear. "Our mission is to promote, educate, and inspire the movement for direct action in defense of the natural wor…ld through an intersectional, anti-colonial, and biocentric lens, without compromise." - Earth First! "This publication was designed and printed in so-called Kansas City, on occupied Kaw, Otoe-Missouria, Osage, and Ochethi Sakowin lands. [.] We're back! After 20 months, we have resuscitated the quarterly publication you know and lovewith some important differences. You probably already noticed this version of the Earth First! Journal doesn't look like the glossy-cover, newsprint magazine that became a staple of the radical environmental movement from 2010 to 2020, maintaining consistent style and content as it passed through many editorial hands and moved back and forth across the continent. We hope the Journal continues to provide unique and essential reporting on biocentrism-guided direct actions, hard-hitting solidarity campaigns, new theories and analyses, gatherings, debates, and everything else the Journal has represented over the last four decades. However, it was time for a change. [.] Partially due to the pandemic and partially due to its geographical movements, the Journal no longer operates out of a communal home-office combo occupied by short-termers and long-termers who share daily tasks. Right now, the Journal is run by one business manager, a volunteer board made up of long-time EF!ers, a virtual editorial collective, and a team of amazing volunteers (and yeah, we need YOU!). As always, our content is solicited from both EF! and the broader movement for ecological justice and environmental defense, through a biocentric and/or direct-action lens. [.] Here's to another four decades of radical and rowdy resistance. See you at the blockade!" Earth First! is a group of radical environmentalists that formed in the American Southwest in the spring of 1980. The group set themselves apart from other environmental groups of the time with their focus on non-hierarchical structures, organic methods of organization and growth, and especially with their utilization of direct action tactics and sabotage (or "monkey wrenching" inspired by Edward Abbey's novel) in defense of wilderness.

In the original dustwrapper, unclipped (priced $4.95 on front flap); sunned on spine panel, slightly creased and worn; Very Good - a… quite presentable copy. Widely regarded as Bookchin's first book, though it was in fact preceded by a 1953 work in German co-written with Götz Ohly. A prescient examination of wide-scale environmental contaminants, including agricultural chemicals, food additives, and antibiotics. Published the same year as (in fact, a few months prior to) Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Bookchin's Our Synthetic Environment covered much of the same ground without attracting nearly the same degree of popular attention. But the book established Bookchin's bona fides as a deep environmental thinker, and launched a forty-year career over which he became the leading voice on the New Left on environmental matters. Infrequent in commerce, especially without institutional markings, as it appears much of the initial print run went to libraries.
