Ex-Green Beret George Hayduke returns from war to find his beloved southwestern desert threatened by industrial development. He teams up with a diverse group: feminist saboteur Bonnie Abzug, wilderness guide Seldom Seen Smith, and libertarian doctor Doc Sarvis. Together, this unlikely crew forms the Monkey Wrench Gang, ready to take on strip miners, clear-cutters, and infrastructure builders. This comedic novel follows their destructive mayhem and outrageous acts of civil disobedience.
