Book Synopsis Made in Hanford by : Hill Williams
Book excerpt: At an isolated location along the Columbia River in 1944, the world's first plutonium factory became operational, producing fuel for the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, during World War II. Former Seattle Times science writer Hill Williams traces the amazing, tragic story--from the dawn of nuclear science to Cold War testing in the Marshall Islands.
