There are two parts to this book. One is the love story brewing between a wandering soul who lands at the Boulder Dam and the amazing Boulder Dam itself. The love story is entertaining and the protagonist is very likable. The detail of the multiple jobs at Boulder Dam is some good stuff. There are only a few pages about Las Vegas during the building of the dam but they are fun too.
