Disasters by Brenda Z Guiberson
Catastrophes, both natural and man-made, have the power to destroy thousands of lives very quickly. Both as they unfold and in the aftermath, these forces of nature astonish the rest of the world with their incredible devastation and magnitude. In these ten riveting chapters about well-known disasters such as the great Chicago fire, the sinking of the Titanic, and hurricane Katrina, Brenda Guiberson explores the causes and effects as well as the local and global reverberations. Highlighted with photographs and drawings, each compelling account tells the story of destruction and devastation, and most especially, the power of mankind to persevere in the face of adversity.| SKU | Unavailable |
