All the Wild That Remains: Edward Abbey, Wallace Stegner, and the American West by David Gessner

5.0

First, I love books that use adventure or travel to help tell the story. Gessner’s road trip through Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming was super fun to read, and I actually had just visited one of the places he talks about a few days before. Second, I love how everyday of an environmentalist David Gessner. His bit about needing to “own” being a hypocritical environmentalist and not making it a pure, moralistic movement is a message I love. Third, I knew a decent amount about Edward Abbey but not much about Wallace Stegner, so this was a great intro.
