Book Reviews of Galveston and the 1900 Storm
Book Review: A valuable resource
Summary: 5 Stars
This well-illustrated volume shows the historical & sociological background of the Storm & its aftermath. It's a good supplement to "A Weekend in September"--my favorite reference--and "Isaac's Storm"--in which the author shows more interest in His Art than telling an exciting story.
I might be tempted to give this book four stars, but I'm trying to even things up because of the reviewer who voted three times.
