Annotation |
On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy, the largest and one of the costliest Atlantic hurricanes on record, made a direct hit on the New Jersey shore. In this riveting book, journalist Kathryn Miles takes us inside the storm. Not only do we learn about the meteorology of this maelstrom, but we hear the stories of the professionals trying to forecast it, the people and communities devastated by its wrath, the tremendous efforts of emergency responders and volunteers to manage the crisis, the political response to the destruction, and the ongoing recovery efforts. Some violence and some strong language.
