Biographical History
Edward Abbey wrote fiction and non-fiction based upon the belief that an important link exists between individual freedom and the presence of wilderness areas. He was born in 1927 in Pennsylvania. He attended the University of New Mexico, receiving a BA in philosophy and literature in 1951 and a MA in philosophy in 1956. Abbey worked for the National Park Service at Arches National Monument during the summers of 1956 and 1956; experiences there inspired his early work, Desert Solitaire . He is perhaps best known for The Monkey Wrench Gang, whose characters attempt to halt construction of buildings and dams in wilderness areas. Abbey died in 1989, at the age of 62, in Tucson, Arizona.
