A story about the Galveston Hurricane, the storm that nearly wiped Galveston off the map.
Larson, author of TheDevilInTheWhiteCity, is rapidly turning into an expert storyteller of historic events. His obsessive research, which includes detailed review of archives, photos, newspapers, memoirs, and other documents, is combined with a eye for detail and narrative which makes his books read fast and feel true, even if many of the actions described are surmised rather than proven.
