The Teton Dam Disaster
Dylan J. McDonald
The Teton Dam Disaster is a gripping account of one of the worst engineering disasters in history. When the newly completed dam collapsed, it unleashed a devastating flood that swept through town after town, drowning thousands of livestock and destroying homes. Despite the incredible damage caused by the wall of water, the loss of life was remarkably low. Through photographs and firsthand accounts, this book paints a vivid picture of the disaster and the massive cleanup and rebuilding process that followed. Even today, the failed dam continues to spark debate about how it could have been prevented.
