Birds, Booze and Bulldozers
by Peter Styles
Birds, Booze & Bulldozers - Brighton event: 06 March + blog
..Birds, Booze & Bulldozers is the inside story of Britain's environmental direct action movement - the most effective political counter-culture of the 1990s.
February 2008
Welcome to the first BB&B blog. Not quite sure what it’ll be yet – a mixture of what’s going down with the book and the odd tuppence worth about the world in general. One date for the diary is Thursday 7th March, where I will be doing readings and playing top tunes from the 90s at the Cowley Club, London Road Brighton from 7pm onwards. It’ll be the first hometown gig since the book was published and am looking forward to busting some moves.
The review copies went out last week. Fingers crossed for some coverage and a hope it creates a bit of heat and light. There’s a complete absence of ‘enviro-tainment’ at present so I reckon we’re due a bit of a big-up from the media.
As far as I’m aware the paperback is due for release in May [allegedly]. It’ll be nice to stack-‘em-high-n-sell-‘em-cheap compared to the current hardback option which I’m told is a necessary evil in the book trade.
Am working away at trying various BB&B related projects. Hopefully we’ll have a presence at Glastonbury and perhaps the odd literary festival. There’s not enough good quality swearing at the latter and I’ll see if we can ruffle some feathers - in a good way. Signing off for now, Hope those who’ve read the book so far have enjoyed it. More blogs to follow in the weeks and months ahead.
Cheers, Peter x

Brighton Author's Novel Idea Portrays Life Inside Environmental Direct Action Movement The action follows Lester and his fellow 'dozer divers up cranes, down bunkers and through long, cold winters in an attempt to stand up for what we stand upon. A motley band of protestors trying to find the balance between protecting life and having one, as their actions change policy, society and ultimately themselves. Youthful passion clashes against the colossal power of big business and the state over issues as diverse as live animal exports, rainforest timber and the arms trade. However, trying to defeat a £23 billion government road programme is a vegan picnic compared to dealing with heartbreak and hangovers.
..Peter Styles.. was a fulltime environmental activist for much of the 1990s. Deeply involved in a variety of campaigns, he was one of the first to be charged under the 1994 Criminal Justice Act and was jailed for his part in the Newbury bypass protests. He then spent several years covering the movement for the underground and mainstream press. Now living in Brighton, he has kept penury at bay with subsequent careers as a journalist, lecturer and comedy writer. Birds, Booze & Bulldozers - a novel by Peter Styles – priced £19.99 / €29.99.
Brighton-based journalist Peter Styles (email Peter at ..pstymail@yahoo.com..) has written ..Birds, Booze & Bulldozers,.. the inside story of Britain's environmental direct action movement - the most effective political counterculture of the 1990s.
More at home with a ball at his feet and a pint in hand, Lester Stype is drawn into becoming an activist to help save the downland of his youth.
