Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
Though she grew up in rural Pennsylvania, Rachel Carson dreamed of the sea. In 1936 she began work with the Bureau of Fisheries and soon after published Under the Sea Wind, her first of many nature books. Her 1962 bestseller, Silent Spring, sent shockwaves through the country and warned of the dangers of DDT and other pesticides. A pioneering environmentalist, Rachel Carson helped awaken the global consciousness for conservation and preservation.

“I am a proud Chatham (PCW) alumna, and I've never read Silent Spring! Ooops.
This Who Is book is perfect for a quick background of one of the leading environmentalists and biologists of our time.”
