Silent spring revolution : John F. Kennedy, Rachel Carson, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and the great environmental awakening / by Brinkley, Douglas,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 705-819) and index.Acclaimed historian Douglas Brinkley chronicles in vivid detail how the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring - and Carson's close partnership with President John F. Kennedy and his administration - launched the modern environmental movement. With Silent Spring Revolution, Brinkley thrillingly caps an arc of work exploring the 20th century histories of the Presidency and ecological awareness in the US, how we moved from the conservation imperatives of Theodore Roosevelt to today's intentional activism is a twisty tale of fits and starts, politics, money, villains, and heroes. Brinkley pays tribute to those who combated the mauling of the natural world in the Long Sixties: Rachel Carson (a marine biologist and author), David Brower (director of the Sierra Club), Barry Commoner (an environmental justice advocate), Coretta Scott King (an antinuclear activist), Stewart Udall (the secretary of the interior), William O. Douglas (Supreme Court justice), Cesar Chavez (a labor organizer), and other crusaders are profiled with verve and insight. With the United States grappling with climate change and resource exhaustion, this meticulously researched and deftly written book reminds us that a new generation of twenty-first-century environmentalists can save the planet from ruin.
