Abstract

More than 50 years after the death of Rachel Carson, her books continue to be in print. They are bought, read, and inspire future generations of environmentally concerned citizens and activists across the world. To understand what motivated Rachel Carson towards a passionate defense of the environment, we need to understand the times in which she was born and appreciate the landscape that shaped her fundamental interest in nature.
