Whispers From The Rae Room

Whispers From The Rae Room was selected as a 'Top Ten' non-fiction finalist at the 2007 Pacific Northwest Writer's Association book awards. Whispers from The Rae Room begins with the accidental discovery of a mysterious Oregon tomb opened only once a year. Inside are two enormous marble sarcophagi, side-by-side for more than half a century. The deceased man is George Rae, a wealthy timber baron who emigrates from Scotland. Rae is historically significant because in 1890, he co-founds one of North America’s most successful businesses, the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company. The firm goes on to establish a world record for lumber production. Whispers From The Rae Room chronicles a fascinating search for details about the shadowy life of the man in the tomb and the scandalous aftermath upon his death.
