Cleveland's Greatest Disasters! by John Bellamy

An anthology of the 15 best true disaster stories from the popular book series by John Stark Bellamy I. Revisit the most terrible tragedies in Cleveland history, including:

- The apocalyptic East Ohio Gas Company explosion and fire of 1944, which destroyed an entire east side neighborhood;

- Genius inventor Garrett A. Morgan's daring underground rescue efforts (using his recently invented gas mask) during the gruesome 1916 waterworks collapse;

- The unspeakably horrible Collinwood school fire of 1908, in which 172 schoolchildren perished in panic because of obstructed exits;

- The Cleveland Clinic disaster of 1929, in which thousands of pounds of X-ray film exploded in flames, causing 123 deaths;

- The grisly drama of two doomed workmen buried alive in the very concrete that became Cleveland's celebrated landmark--the Terminal Tower.

A great introduction to Bellamy's five-book Cleveland crime and disaster series.
