Summary:
"Ken Martin, his wife Barbara, and their three young daughters left their Northeast Portland home in December of 1958 to search for Christmas greens in the Columbia River Gorge - and never returned. The Martins' disappearance spurred the largest missing persons search in Oregon history and the mystery has remained perplexingly unsolved to this day. For the past six years, J.B. Fisher (Portland on the Take) has pored over the case after finding in his garage a stack of old Oregon Journal newspaper articles about the story"-- Back cover.
