Edward Abbey

A favorite author for me who wrote novels, short stories and essays of the American southwest is Edward Abbey. He was a controversial writer because of his beliefs. He was noted for his advocacy of environmental issues and criticisms of public land policies (industrial tourism specifically).  He wrote poignant and emotional with his descriptive images of nature. He loved literature and music. Here is a collage of his quotes on music that I made.

Here are most of his books...

I need to get out more so that I can find books like these! I am hoping that I can come across the poetry collection you brilliantly came across! You even made the 'quote' collection! Me likie! Will this be at your Etsy shop?
