Publisher: Lucent Books 1995 First edition ISBN 13 9781560060529 ISBN 10 1560060522 96 pages -- Approx. size: 9.5" by 6.5" Rachel Louise Carson was an American marine biologist, author, and conservationist whose influential book Silent Spring and other writings are credited with advancing the global environmental movement. Perhaps the finest nature writer of the Twentieth Century, Rachel Carson (1907-1964) is remembered more today as the woman who challenged the notion that humans could obtain mastery over nature by chemicals, bombs and space travel than for her studies of ocean life. Near mint except for a library index sticky on the spine. Otherwise looks like new and in beautiful condition. Illustrated with black and white photos and line drawings. Please see and enlarge photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks |
