Wasting Libby: The True Story of How the WR Grace Corporation Left a Montan a Town to Die (and Got Away with It) (Counterpunch)

AK Press, 2010. Paperback. Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Wasting Libby chronicles decades of neglect by state and federal agencies, which allowed the Grace corporation to reap millions in profits from the la rgest vermiculite mine in the world, while knowingly exposing generations o f Montana residents to fatal levels of asbestos-contaminated dust. Libby's story, which culminates in the 2009 criminal trial of the corporation's exe cutives, is ultimately the tale of the families who fought Grace for justic e, who refused to sacrifice their dignity even as they lost their lives. With an introduction by actor and environmentalist Jeff Bridges. Andrea Peacock is the co-author, with Doug Peacock, of The Essential Grizzly.
