This is a marvelous book. . . . Wrenched from the Land not only presents valuable academic source materials for understanding the evolution of American environmental activism, it also offers delightful personal perspectives on Edward Abbey and how his words touched and impassioned important voices protecting the American West--and the whole earth.--Vernon Owen Grumbling, Western American Literature

These sixteen interviews, along with the foreword by Bill McKibben, cut a wide swath through the environmental movement in our nation. There's a lot of anger, a lot of Abbey-esque humor, and every person interviewed shares their own way of engaging in the struggle.--John Nichols, author of The Milagro Beanfield War
