520    From renowned writer and travel journalist Gary Krist 
       comes the never-before-told story of one of the worst rail
       disasters in U.S. history in which two trains full of 
       people, trapped high in the Cascade Mountains, are hit by 
       a devastating avalanche. In February 1910, a monstrous 
       blizzard centered on Washington State hit the Northwest, 
       breaking records. The world stopped-but nowhere was the 
       danger more terrifying than near a tiny town called 
       Wellington, perched high in the Cascade Mountains, where a
       desperate situation evolved minute by minute: two 
       trainloads of cold, hungry passengers and their crews 
       found themselves marooned without escape, their railcars 
       gradually being buried in the rising drifts. For days, an 
       army of the Great Northern Railroad's most dedicated men-
       led by the line's legendarily courageous superintendent, 
       James O'Neill-worked round-the-clock to rescue the trains.
       But the storm was unrelenting, and to the passenger's 
       great anxiety, the railcars-their only shelter-were parked
       precariously on the edge of a steep ravine. As the days 
       passed, food and coal supplies dwindled. Panic and rage 
       set in as snow accumulated deeper and deeper on the cliffs
       overhanging the trains. Finally, just when escape seemed 
       possible, the unthinkable occurred: the earth shifted and 
       a colossal avalanche tumbled from the high pinnacles, 
       sweeping the trains and their sleeping passengers over the
       steep slope and down the mountainside. Centered on the 
       astonishing spectacle of our nation's deadliest avalanche,
       The White Cascade is the masterfully told story of a 
       supremely dramatic and never-before-documented American 
       tragedy. An adventure saga filled with colorful and 
       engaging history, this is epic narrative storytelling at 
       its finest.
