Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Arkansas River Flood of June 3-5, 1921
The ?ood was remarkable for the very small area covered by the rainfall that was its chief cause, and for the swift rise Of the river to an unprecedented stage and its almost equally rapid fall. The swift rise and fall indicated very great ?ood discharges of the tributary streams, which drain a mountainous country Of steep slopes. The total discharge Of the main ?ood was less than acre-feet.
