About this title: Edward Abbey's futuristic fable presents a world that is, in Abbey's view, a logical outcome of the course being taken by American society in the 20th century. All systems have broken down, and the world has evolved into a society in which two rival ways of life head for a confrontation: a pastoral community of peaceful whites and Native Americans in the Southwest, and an armed, militaristic urban force on motorcycles, who seek ultimate power.

"Read while on the PCT. This book got passed around by many hikers, I think I got it from Scholar? Anyway, it was kind of blah. Worth reading if there is nothing else better I suppose."
"Great view about the ind of society and things going back to the way they were in the old west. Outlaws and fights, this was an exciting book. Started out a little slow but then I got sucked in!!! Read it man!"
