About This Item
Washington DC: Regnery Gateway, 1993. First Edition, !st Printing . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. In this book, Dr. Ray tells how good stewardship of the environment, scientific honesty, and even our constitutional liberties based on property rights are being endangered by environmental extremists, scare-mongering journalists, media-conscious scientists, "visionary" politicians, power-hungry bureaucrats, regulate to defeat the competiton big business leaders, and rapacious lawyers. Environmental Overkill is a bright light that exposes the fraud and deceit being perpetrated against an unknowing public; it has more relevance today than when it was written. Volume itself has green & white covers with sharp gilt lettering on the spine. Signed and inscribed on the half title page in bold blue pen as follows: "To a couple of kindred spirits-/Chuck and Ann Huxley/All the best!/ Cheers-/Dixy Lee Ray/". 260 pages, including an index.
