Review
A factual spellbinder, inspirational to student, amateur, and professional alike. Anyone with an ounce of curiosity or a smidgeon of interest in the machinations of science or the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest will find it captivating reading as well. Biography, guide, and detective story. -- Murray Morgan "Tacoma News Tribune" (09/01/1999) A fascinating and valuable introduction to the geology of the region -- Paul Pintarich "Oregonian" (09/01/1999) The book also tells a human story as fascinating as the story of the flood. . . Entertaining and admirably clear. -- Margaret Donsbach "Friends of the Columbia River Gorge Bulletin" (09/01/1999)
