Off the coast of Oregon, the Columbia River flows into the Pacific Ocean and forms the Columbia River Bar: a watery collision so turbulent and deadly that it’s nicknamed the Graveyard of the Pacific. Two thousand ships have been wrecked on the bar since the first European ship dared to try to cross it. Since then, the commercial importance of the Columbia River has only grown, but despite the construction of jetties on either side, the bar remains treacherous.

Place names pronunciation butchered
Revisado: 03-22-24
The book is a first person narrative by a Pacific Northwest resident, yet the reader mispronouces so many place names it's impossible to get immersed in the story. It would have been so simple to check the list of names with literally anyone in the area. The whole thing gives the impression of a cheap knockoff. Finally had to stop listening when the childhood back story took over. Is this a local history or a biography?
