(Denver), Mountain Gazette, 1974. A chapter from Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang, published here the year before the book's publication, and with variations from the final text. Pages 5-7 of this issue, with the last text column of page 5 printed a bit off the edge of the page. 10" x 15"; splitting along the stapled spine. Address label removal evident on front cover; previously folded. A good copy of a fragile publication that represents an early version of what may be Abbey's most influential book, which helped instigate "monkeywrenching" as environmental protest, and helped birth Earth First!, the most famous, or notorious, of the radical environmental groups.
