| Big Pivots
by Steve Andrews In 1970, if you told folks you were an environmentalist, you might get “say what?” thrown back at you. People didn’t know what the term meant. If you said you were a solar energy supporter, again you were likely to receive a blank stare. Take it from Morey Wolfson, the person who led the inaugural Earth Day event in Denver, 55 years ago this week. During June of 1969, an oil slick on Ohio’s Cuyahoga River caught fire.

This docu-novel by Steve Andrews, a Vietnam War veteran, straddles two paths, providing a non-traditional blend of non-fiction and fiction that pairs historical reporting with a gripping story.

So, most readers won't be able to just walk outside and find the butterflies and moths described herein.
