Resumen del Editor
"The air had no oxygen, like being trapped underwater...I was being cremated, the pain unbearable." - Jim Scymanky
"I was on my knees, my back to the hot wind. It blew me along, lifting my rear so I was up on my hands...It was hot but I didn't feel burned - until I felt my ears curl." - Mike Hubbard
A napping volcano blinked awake in March 1980. Two months later, the mountain roared. Author Richard Waitt was one of the first to arrive following the mountain's early rumblings. A geologist with intimate knowledge of Mount St. Helens, Waitt delivers a detailed and accurate chronicle of events. His eruption story unfolds through unforgettable, riveting narratives - the heart of a masterful chronology that also delivers engrossing science, history, and journalism.
The original book was published by Washington State University Press.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

From batting averages and political polls to game shows and medical research, the real-world application of statistics continues to grow by leaps and bounds. How can we catch schools that cheat on standardized tests? How does Netflix know which movies you'll like? What is causing the rising incidence of autism? As best-selling author Charles Wheelan shows us in Naked Statistics, the right data and a few well-chosen statistical tools can help us answer these questions and more.

Historia
The Blind Watchmaker, knowledgably narrated by author Richard Dawkins, is as prescient and timely a book as ever. The watchmaker belongs to the 18th-century theologian William Paley, who argued that just as a watch is too complicated and functional to have sprung into existence by accident, so too must all living things, with their far greater complexity, be purposefully designed. Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments; but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte.

Historia
We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.

A good book may have the power to change the way we see the world, but a great book actually becomes part of our daily consciousness, pervading our thinking to the point that we take it for granted, and we forget how provocative and challenging its ideas once were - and still are. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is that kind of book.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Historia
The real stories behind the scenery of America’s national parks. For 12 years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved. She chaperoned baby sea turtles on their journey to sea. She pursued bad guys on her galloping patrol horse. She jumped into rescue helicopters bound for the heart of the Grand Canyon. She won arguments with bears. She slept with a few too many rattlesnakes. Hell yeah, it was the best job in the world! Fortunately, Andrea survived it.

Enjoyable, but hard to follow on audio
I'm enjoying this book, but it is hard to follow on audio. I am fascinated by the details, but really need a map in front of me to fully understand the stories in the book. Every eyewitness story is identified by location in relation to the mountain, frequently with road numbers. I don't know if the paper version had a map and photos, but if it did, it would be nice to have access to them.
That being said, it's a gripping story and I'm not sorry that I'm spending so much time listening to it (at 1.2x speed, which helps!).

stream of data
at times, the quick and short succession of first hand accounts got confusing, but attribute that to narration vs actually reading them(also listen at 1.25 speed). if you are looking for a pure data stream, this is the one to listen to. a great deal of effort was made to chronicle the stories of survivors, and I applaud the author.

Amazing compilation of First Person Accounts
I recently visited Mount St Helens for the first time, and was left with a desire to know the stories of the people who lived through the eruption at close quarters as well as those who didn't escape.
This is exactly what I was looking for when I started looking for a audiobook to listen to about the eruption of Mount St Helens. I actually lived through these events as a child living in the Yakima Valley at the time. I had a general knowledge of the events, but this book really lays it out in detail, from the people on the scene at the time. The narrator does a great job of conveying the mood, and has a great storytelling voice. I plan on listening to this many times over the years.

What an adventure!
I've had this book almost a year now. I enjoy it so much! The specific narration of dates, times and locations took a little bit to get used to, but didn't take away from the story. I learn something new every time I listen to this book!
I was born in 1980, and have always been fascinated with the Mount Saint Helen's story. This book brings to life all the stories my Mom told me as a kid.

Excellent and informative book
Thank you for this great listen. I was only 7 years old when the mountain erupted, but I do remember it well. My mom, sister and I were listening about it on the radio and my dad was out mowing the lawn. We called him inside to listen just as big flakes of ash started to fall. Excellent book. I’m intrigued by the eruption and this book gave me a lot more insight.

Awful language, story drags with itrelevant detail
Could have done without this one, and regret my purchase. Too much offensive language without constructive purpose. By the 6th chapter, I was tired of the book.
