Davis, John, et al., eds., Earth First! 9, no. 6 (21 June 1989). Republished by the Environment & Society Portal, Multimedia Library. http://www.environmentandsociety.org/node/6911.
In this issue of Earth First! John Davis gives an update on various legal issues concerning the EF! movement.
"Life has been quiet in EF! circles of late: a few arrests, several supposed acts of sabotage, a covert FBI campaign to destroy the EF! movement; a few score acts of countermonkey-wrenching… nothing that ecological or social justice advocates shouldn’t expect. These various recent events, predictable though they should have been, have an important message to convey: EF! is being effective. The federal scoundrels don’t like us."
— John Davis
In addition, Tom Skeele reports on the boycott of the Adolph Coors Company, Henry Lee Morgenstern calls for attention to the endangered Key deer, and in this issue’s “International News,” Mary Davis describes how French activists fight for the wild river of Loire.
