Summary:

The Mount Adams Country: Forgotten Corner of the Columbia River Gorge by Keith McCoy, edited by David A. James, is a 1987 local history detailing the early development and pioneer heritage of Washington's Klickitat County. The book explores the rugged region situated between the White Salmon and Klickitat rivers, chronicling the area's geography, indigenous populations, and the foundational industries like logging that shaped its growth up to the Second World War. Ultimately, it serves as a deeply affectionate, well-researched tribute to the frontier communities and natural landscapes that defined this scenic stretch of the Cascade Mountains adjacent to the Columbia River.
