Their plans were conceived in a drunken excitement and resulted in more horror than any of them could have imagined. There was the poet able to retreat into beatific reveries of superb fishing in cold, fast streams; the Vietnam vet consumed by uppers, downers and violence; and the girl who loved only one of them at first. With their ideals ostensibly in order, they set out from Florida to save the Grand Canyon from a dam they believed was being built. Along with the tapedeck for the car, the liquor and the drugs, there was also a case of dynamite.

NY: Delta, 1981. First thus. Softcover. Very good. First Delta paperback edition, following the 1973 Simon and Schuster first. Scarce signed in this edition. An association copy: This was one of Harrison's personal copies, sent to novelist and memoirist Kaylie Jones (daughter of National Book Award--winning novelist James Jones and actress Gloria Jones). Harrison has sketched his patented one-eyed face on the half-title page and in a dialogue bubble the inscription reads: "Kaylie, this is a wretched, unhappy book, Jim." Not actually the case--it's a fun, fairly riveting, drug-filled story that travels from Key West to Idaho for some dramatic monkeywrenching. A very good plus paperback with some light wear, handling, and toning.  One crease across lower rear wrap. A nice find for the complete Harrison collector. A photocopy of a letter from Harrison conveying the book will be included. .
