by Abbey, Edward
USA: Plume, 1991. Reprint. Paperback. New. 242pp. Small Octavo [20.5cm] Photo illustrated blue wraps. From the back of the book: "The Journey Home ranges from the surreal cityscapes of Hoboken and Manhattan to the solitary splendor of the deserts and mountains of the Southwest. It is alive with ranchers, dam builders, kissing bugs, and mountain lions. In a voice edged with chagrin, Abbey offers us the observations of a man who left the urban world behind to think about the natural world and the myths buried therein." Illustrations by Jim Stiles.
