X-WR-CALDESC:A riveting narrative about the biggest earthquake in North Ame
 rican recorded history—the 1964 Alaska earthquake that demolished the city
  of Valdez and swept away the island village of Chenega—and the geologist 
 who hunted for clues to explain how and why it took place.\n\nAt 5:36 p.m.
  on March 27\, 1964\, a magnitude 9.2. earthquake—the second most powerful
  in world history—struck the young state of Alaska. The violent shaking\, 
 followed by massive tsunamis\, devastated the southern half of the state a
 nd killed more than 130 people. A day later\, George Plafker\, a geologist
  with the U.S. Geological Survey\, arrived to investigate. His fascinating
  scientific detective work in the months that followed helped confirm the 
 then-controversial theory of plate tectonics. In a compelling tale about t
 he almost unimaginable brute force of nature\, New York Times science jour
 nalist Henry Fountain combines history and science to bring the quake and 
 its aftermath to life in vivid detail. With deep\, on-the-ground reporting
  from Alaska\, often in the company of George Plafker\, Fountain shows how
  the earthquake left its mark on the land and its people—and on science.\n
