Full-Rip 9.0: The Next Big Earthquake in the Pacific Northwest by Sandi Doughton. Published by Sasquatch Books, Seattle. Paperback edition, ISBN 978-1-57061-942-7. This copy is a 2015 second printing based on the publisher’s number line. A compelling and highly readable examination of the earthquake risk facing the Pacific Northwest, with particular focus on the Cascadia Subduction Zone. Doughton explains the science behind major seismic events, the geological history of the region, and the potential effects of a future large-scale earthquake on Washington, Oregon, and surrounding areas. The book combines scientific research, regional history, and reporting to make a complex subject accessible to a general audience. Condition: Like New. The cover and pages are in excellent condition with no visible wear. The binding is tight and has not been cracked, and the spine shows no creasing. Pages are clean, bright, and free of writing, highlighting, stains, tears, or other markings. The book appears to have been very lightly handled, if at all. A particularly nice copy for readers interested in Pacific Northwest history, geology, seismology, emergency preparedness, natural disasters, or Cascadia earthquake research. Please review the photos for the exact condition and edition of the book being offered.…

Scientists have identified Seattle, Portland, and Vancouver as the urban centers of what will be the biggest earthquake—the Really Big One—in the continental United States. A quake will happen—in fact, it’s actually overdue. The Cascadia subduction zone is 750 miles long, running along the Pacific coast from Northern California up to southern British Columbia.
In this fascinating book, The Seattle Times science reporter Sandi Doughton introduces readers to the scientists who are dedicated to understanding the way the earth moves and describes what patterns can be identified and how prepared (or not) people are. With a 100% chance of a mega-quake hitting the Pacific Northwest, this fascinating book reports on the scientists who are trying to understand when, where, and just how big The Big One will be.

Store description
Welcome to RTR by M&M, a veteran-owned small business run by Michael and Melissa. We’re both registered nurses who have spent our careers caring for others, and Michael is also a retired U.S. Army Reserve officer with more than two decades of military service. That background has shaped how we approach our business: with attention to detail, honesty, reliability, and respect for the history behind the things we sell. What began as a small resale venture has grown into a genuine interest in finding and preserving books with a story. We especially enjoy discovering books from private collections and estates, including military history, American history, biographies, vintage books, signed and inscribed copies, and other unusual titles that deserve to find the right reader or collector. Some of the books we acquire have histories that go far beyond the printed page. Whenever provenance, inscriptions, signatures, or ownership history are known, we work to document those details carefully rather than treating the book as simply another piece of inventory. Every book is personally inspected and photographed by us. We strive to describe condition accurately, including edition information, dust jackets, markings, inscriptions, signatures, and any flaws we observe. We also package our books carefully because we understand that a collectible book arriving safely matters just as much as finding it in the first place. RTR by M&M is ultimately a small family business built around the idea of giving worthwhile things another life. For us, books are especially meaningful because each one already has a history — and we enjoy helping it begin its next chapter. Michael & Melissa RTR by M&M Giving books and collectibles another chapter.…
