A propos de cet article

40pp. Newsprint [43cm x 27.5cm / 17" x 11"]. Ten bifolia (sheets folded vertically once to form forty pages). Lightly and sporadically age-toned, a bit more so around edges and folds. Some very light and sporadic staining, creasing, toning. 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. "Earth First! is the beginning of the new, bold environmental movement. And 'Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal' is its voice. No compromise in the defense of Mother Earth!" (Dave Foreman, Editor). Rear cover half-page illustration by Brush Wolf is untitled and depicts two howling wolves standing atop an upside down bulldozer. Cover articles: "El Tigre: Doesn't Live Here Anymore" by Dan Dagget and "Undeveloped Lands In New England For Sale, Cheap" by Jamie Sayen. Other articles include "Connecticut River of Salmon Return" by Zapus Sylvester, "Quebec Ski Area Slides Over Local and Environmental Concerns" by Roger Sansterre, "Idaho Wilderness Gets the Axe!" by Somerset, "Deep Ecology and the New Civil Rights Movement" by Mike Roselle, "Conservation Biology and the Greater North Cascades Ecosystem" by Mitch Friedman, "The Neanderthal Gene" by Dave Foreman, and "Of Corporate Scum and Dirty Fingernails" by Jamie Sayen, amongst others. The "Nerthus" supplement insert on pages 19-22 focuses on the theme of paganism. Edward Abbey's book review of Richard Kazis and Richard L. Grossman's "Fear At Work: Job Blackmail, Labor, and the Environment" appears on page 25. The "Armed With Vision" poetry page is on page 35. "Earth First! Trinkets & Snake Oil" on page 36. Many illustrations throughout. Advertisements at the rear.
