books.google.com - Rachel Carsonâs Silent Spring was first published in three serialized excerpts in the New Yorker in June of 1962. The book appeared in September of that year and the outcry that followed its publication forced the banning of DDT and spurred revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water.
His first book, Three Stories and Ten Poems, was published in 1923 and his first novel, The Torrents of Spring, three years later. He went on to write the classics, For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Old Man and the Sea, and to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. Sadly, he suffered with his mental health and he committed suicide in 1961.
