The second of Williams’s books on the mountains of the West describes the three snow peaks that stand over the Columbia River gorge: Mount Hood, Mount Adams and Mount St. Helens. He tells how the river and the Cascade volcanoes were built up, describes their glaciers, lava and forests, and records early climbs and native legends of the peaks.
A handsome portrait of the Northwest volcanoes long before Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980. Download the free EPUB.
