Hurricane Katrina by Jamie Pietras
On August 29, 2005, the tropical hurricane known as Katrina made landfall at an area just 70 miles to the southeast of New Orleans, tearing the roofs off of buildings and tossing boats like confetti. This work explains how the disaster stands among the worst in United States history, killing more than 1,600 people, and destroying 200,000 homes.
