Produktinformationen zu „Night The Mountain Fell (ePub)“
This is an informative and gripping account of the 1959 Hebgen Lake earthquake, also known as the 1959 Yellowstone earthquake, which struck in southwestern Montana on August 17 at 11:37 pm (MST). The earthquake measured 7.3-7.5 on the Richter magnitude scale and caused a huge landslide, leaving 28 people dead and causing US $11 million (1959) in damage.The slide blocked the flow of the Madison River resulting in the creation of Quake Lake, and effects of the earthquake were also felt in Idaho and Wyoming. It was the strongest and deadliest earthquake to hit Montana since the 1935-36 Helena earthquakes and caused the worst landslides in the history of the Northwestern United States since 1927.With numerous illustrations and color photographs, and eyewitness accounts help to tell the story.
Autoren-Porträt von Edmund Christopherson
Ed Christopherson (1903-1974) was a professional author and magazine writer whose articles about Montana, the Northwest, and other subjects appeared in The Saturday Evening Post, Holiday, This Week Magazine, Mademoiselle, Reader's Digest, The New York Times, Congressional Record, etc. Christopherson went to West Yellowstone (they called it "Shookville") the day after the quake, gathering first-hand accounts from survivors there, and flew and walked over the slide in Ennis and elsewhere in the quake area. He also spent months researching and correlating what turned out to be "The Night The Mountain Fell."
