From Monday, June 9 through Father’s Day, Sunday, June 15, 2008, the Cedar River swelled and rolled south. At the same time, to the west, the Iowa River was also growing. The two rivers join, in a confluence, just northeast of Columbus Junction and flow on to the Mississippi River. We knew after the winter snows that the potential was there for flooding. No one, however, could anticipate or adequately prepare for what happened.
"One Week in June" was a Barnes & Noble Iowa best seller, and is the only book which tells the story of the whole flood--from Charles City in the north, through Waverly, Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Vinton, Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, and finally to Columbus Junction in the south. "One Week in June" tells the story as it happened, day by day, with more than 200 stunning color photographs. The award-winning design created by WDG Publishing of Cedar Rapids, along with the stories told by lifelong Iowan Jeff Stein, combine to make this book a keepsake of an historic event. Hardcover (10x9 inches), 138 pages. (WDG Publishing, 2009)
$44.95 plus $3.15 sales tax and $7.50 shipping and handling. Shipping directly from WDG Publishing via Media Mail.
