Editorial Reviews
Review
Paul Pintarich Oregonian : A fascinating and valuable introduction to the geology of the region
Murray Morgan Tacoma News Tribune : Biography, guide, and detective story.
Oregon Historical Quarterly : 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.
Margaret Donsbach Friends of the Columbia River Gorge Bulletin : The book also tells a human story as fascinating as the story of the flood. . . Entertaining and admirably clear.
Book Description
The formation of the Grand Coulee remained a mystery for many years, until J Harlen Bretz proved that the Columbia River basin was the site of huge floods 15,000 years ago that created the landscape we see today.
