It's 1974 and ten-year-old Pick Patterson is stuck for the summer in Twin Falls, Idaho, with his bossy Grandma Grace and his unemployed, easy-going Uncle Buddy. When Evel Knievel comes to town to jump the Snake River Canyon, Pick is caught up in the excitement as the sleepy little community is awakened and invaded by the worldwide press, motorcycle gangs, drugged-up hippies, and spectators who've come to witness the historic event. For the 50th Anniversary of Evel Knievel's jump, author Kelly Jones brings readers a new edition of Evel Knievel Jumps the Snake River Canyon, originally published in 2014.
