March 18, 6PM at the Moab Arts and Recreation Center: Douglas Brinkley in conversation about his new book Silent Spring Revolution

Join New York Times bestselling author Douglas Brinkley for an intimate chat and book signing at the MARC

Saturday, March 18th, 6:00-7:30pm at the Moab Arts and Recreation Center

Silent Spring Revolution: John F. Kennedy, Rachel Carson, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and the Great Environmental Awakening is Brinkley’s most recent book and it is sure to be a hit with public land lovers who enjoy the Moab area, especially Canyonlands National Park.

New York Times bestselling author and acclaimed historian Douglas Brinkley chronicles the rise of environmental activism during the Long Sixties, telling a highly charged story of an indomitable generation that quite literally saved the natural world under the leadership of John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and Richard Nixon.

Join Brinkley as he discusses how Canyonlands National Park and Moab’s own Bates Wilson fit into this critical era.

The evening will consist of an intimate chat/lecture, Q&A, and book signing.

Seating is limited and a donation to the Friends is requested.

Check out Friends of Arches and Canyonlands Parks for more details.

Hampton Sides is my favorite author of narrative nonfiction and reading his 2014 book In the Kingdom of Ice: The Grand and Terrible Polar Voyage of the U.S.S. Jeannette only solidified that opinion. It is the harrowing story of an 1879 arctic expedition that became a desperate struggle for survival after the ship was trapped in ice. The book reads almost like a novel with a captivating cast of characters and expert pacing. Both difficult to put down and informative, it provides the larger societal context without ever bogging down the thrilling tale of adventure and hardship. Sides is a fantastic storyteller and this is yet another book of his that I heartily recommend to anyone who enjoys reading about history.
