Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience the epic earthquake that shook up Yellowstone and the rescue effort that ensued. At 11:37 p.m. on August 17, 1959, a magnitude 7.5 earthquake rocked Montana's Yellowstone country. In an instant, an entire mountainside fractured and thundered down onto the sites of unsuspecting campers. The mammoth avalanche generated hurricane-force winds ahead of it that ripped clothing from backs and heaved tidal waves in both directions of the Madison River Canyon. More than two hundred vacationers trapped in the canyon feared the dam upstream would burst. As debris and flooding overwhelmed the river, injured victims frantically searched the darkness for friends and family. Acclaimed historian Larry Morris tells the gripping minute-by-minute saga of the survivors who endured the interminable night, the first responders who risked their lives and the families who waited days and weeks for word of their missing loved ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scenic yet somber Earthquake Lake is nestled along the Madison River in the mountains of Custer Gallatin National Forest in Montana, north of the community of West Yellowstone, which is a popular gateway to Yellowstone National Park. Earthquake Lake serves as a reminder of the night of August 17, 1959, when Montana's deadliest earthquake--and the strongest one on record in the Rocky Mountains--struck the area. The resulting damage permanently altered the natural landscape for miles surrounding the epicenter. When the earthquake struck, campers were trapped by a massive landslide, and guests were evacuated from hotels and inns throughout the Yellowstone region. Roads were destroyed, new geysers sprang to life, and chimneys toppled over. First responders and volunteers immediately jumped into action, determined to rescue those who had been stranded and injured by the destruction. These captivating photographs explore the history of the infamous earthquake and its significant effects on the region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
