More from OnEarth

A one-two punch: Four new books from OnEarth's talented writers, including two in one month from David Gessner.

The TarBall Chronicles
David Gessner
Milkweed Editions, $15

My Green Manifesto
David Gessner
Milkweed Editions, $24

Contributing editor David Gessner has pulled off the rare feat of publishing two books in two months, both originating in work that first appeared in OnEarth and onearth.org. The Tarball Chronicles (Milkweed Editions, $15) recounts his travels in the Gulf of Mexico in the months following the April 2010 BP oil spill. My Green Manifesto (Milkweed Editions, $24) grew out of a canoe trip down the Charles River in Massachusetts -- the inspiration for the old Standells hit, "Dirty Water" -- and lays out, with Gessner’s trademark wit, a vision of environmentalism that is fresh, passionate, and unafraid of challenging conventional wisdom.


Empire of the Beetle
Andrew Nikiforuk
Greystone Books, $17.95

Canadian journalist Nikiforuk, whose story "Blame Canada!" appears in the Fall 2011 issue, chronicles the ravages of the mountain pine beetle on our Rocky Mountain forests
