Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with full number line. Very very minor edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped, no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, looks unread. 288pp. Rachel Carson is said to have sparked the modern day environmental movement with the publication of Silent Spring in 1962. She made vivid the gloomy prospect of life without birdsong. But have her warnings been heeded? Fifty years on, Conor Jameson reflects on the growth of environmentalism since Silent Spring. Using a particular style of nature writing that could be dubbed 'biogumentary', with its engaging narrative momentum, this revealing tale plots milestone events in conservation and cultural / political history to evoke the five decades since 'zero hour', 1962. Around this, Conor weaves touching personal observation and two decades of notes from his own roles in conservation. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 002827

His revealing and engaging tale plots milestone events in conservation, popular culture and political history in the British Isles and beyond, tracking a path through the half century since 'zero hour,' 1962."
