Edward Abbey !

Two of my all time favorite books by anybody are illustrated here . . . In "The Fool's Progress", Edward Abbey has left us some of the finest writing by any wordsmith in the English language. He had an inkling, a premonition, or perhaps a certitude that his health was failing, and he poured out an intensely human voyage back to his roots in rural Appalachia in this story. As for "Black Sun", it is quite simply one of the most beautiful tales of love and loss ever written. I strongly encourage you to go out and acquire these two books if they are not already in your personal library... and let me know what you think of them...
