Book Description
"On August 28 Vermont was struck by Tropical Storm Irene. ... As much as seven inches of rain fell on an already saturated Green Mountain state. What resulted was a most "imperfect storm" that devastated some watersheds while leaving others relatively unaffected. Nowhere were the inequities of this storm more apparent than with the White River and its colorfully named tributaries ... Stony, Gilead, Thayer, Riford, Flint, Jail, and Camp Brook. This is the story of a storm, but also the storm stories that resulted."--Cover.
