A collection of essays and transcripts of interviews and speeches by Earth First!er Judi Bari who survived first a 1990 car-bombing that left her paralyzed, then subsequent implication in her own attack, in spite of clear motives and death-threats from others. These articles and essays provide a history of Earth First!'s work and internal struggles, the involvement of the timber corporations, Richard Held (of COINTELPRO fame) and the FBI in discrediting Earth First!, as well as Bari's own complex relationship with the organization and some of its tactics.

Robert Rosenthal was a “Renaissance man,” a person who excelled at a diverse number of activities and interests: architect, designer of medical office buildings, sculptor, film-maker, scuba diver, surfer, swimmer, world traveler, history buff, classical music aficionado, chef, gardener, businessman, fisherman, ardent reader of books, yoga enthusiast, family-man extraordinaire, and a writer of essays, political diatribes, and short stories. He would often wake up in the middle of the night and eagerly jot down a story idea. This book is a compilation of many of those stories, intended to be a legacy for his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Among other qualities such as insatiable optimism, Bob will be remembered by family and friends for his unending generosity. Bob departed this world too soon at the age of 91 in 2023. He had many projects underway that he had hoped to complete.
