Book Reviews of Catastrophe! The 100 Greatest Disasters of All Time
Book Review: Disaster Synopsis Book
Summary: 3 Stars
Nice looking book, but I was disappointed that only 2 or 3 pages were given to each disaster. While I recognize the task of covering 100 disasters obviously means large number of pages can't be written for each event, I did want to read more than just 2 pages. This fact was not mentioned in the sales description of the book. There is only one photo (printed, not a photo plate, which are clearer) per event, which was also a big disappointment. I paged through the book when I received it and decided to return it because of these things. Covering disasters from BC to current day also may not appeal to everyone.
