An illiterate master tunnel-builder and the ragtag crew of inexperienced young men he assembled to build some of the largest dams in Southwest Washington are the unlikely heroes of the novel Whiskey Riley, a new book about a hazardous and unusual profession-the underground diversion of rivers.
About the Author: Jerry McGee was born and raised in Southwest Washington. He worked on five of the major dams in the Pacific Northwest including the tunnels at Yale and Swift Creek Dams on the Lewis River. He spent over two decates as an amateur prospector in the Mt.St.Helens Mining District. McGee received his doctoral degree from the University of Northern Colorado.
