An Air That Kills: 6how the Asbestos Poisoning of Libby, Montana, Uncovered a National Scandal Paperback - 2005

by Andrew Schneider; David McCumber

An Air That Kills is the horrifying true story of the decades-long poisoning of a small town and the definitive exposé of asbestos in America-all told by the prize-winning journalists who broke it.

This is the story of miners who were unaware of the toxins they took into their lungs, then brought home in their clothes-infecting their families. It is the story of the ongoing use of asbestos in products ranging from insulation to cat litter. It is the story behind the George W. Bush administration's successful campaign to cover up the full extent of the post-9/11 asbestos problem in Lower Manhattan. But it is also the story of the townspeople and government workers who took on the government in Washington to demand justice for those who died-and those who are still dying-of preventable exposure to asbestos.


First line

A SINGLE LODGEPOLE PINE from what's left of Zonolite Mountain would be plenty.
