Publisher's Summary

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!

Classic

A fantastic story, easy to listen to, easy to follow. The narration is really what sets it off though.

Great story, so well narrated!

This is a classic, which I have always found incredibly amusing as well as thought-provoking. The narrator did a phenomenal job. The voices were excellent, and they really brought the characters alive.
