"At first, I had hoped that McKay Jenkins&amp;rsquo; The White Death was going to be the alpine equivalent of Sebastian Jungers&amp;rsquo; The Perfect Storm which exquisitely combined the facts and data that would normally appeal only to the historian, fluid dynamicist and/or Weather Channel junkie with a narrative thread that made sorting through the mountain of information presented seem not at all like work; so that in the end, I came away from a hell of a good yarn (please forget everything about that sappy movie with Markie Mark and G. Clooney) thinking that I knew more about hurricanes, Nor&amp;rsquo;easters, waves, helicopters and the Coast Guard than I would ever have tracked down on my own. In the case of The White Death, the drama is certainly there."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
