review 1: As someone who gets 90% of her water from the Colorado I can not help but to appreciate the Hoover Dam and all of the effort that went into building it. I enjoyed the actual history of this story, the details about the engineering, technology, and human labor that went into building the Dam. The fictional story line was kinda dry, but I say that as a fan of historical fiction so my expectations may be high.
review 2: Really well done. I've enjoyed all of this author's books. I was even able to get him to sign my copy at the book store! I was enthralled with the history of Hoover Dam as he presented it. I toured the dam as a child and the book added a new dimension to my understanding of what it took to accomplish that feat of engineering. I was deeply disturbed... more by the element of predjudice in this story. I pray we as a country have come a long way from that point. The story was gripping and interesting. The included photos were a nice touch. less
