Inhoud:

Mount Washington is the highest peak in the northeastern United States. It is often cited as the home of the country's worst weather. As a transmitter supervisor for WMTW-TV, Lee Vincent travelled regularly to the summit of Mount Washington. His reports from the peak began appearing in a column in a local paper and captivated readers near and far. These columns are gathered in this book.
