"Since my job relates to disasters, I found this history of metereology and the Galveston hurricane of 1901 sincerely fascinating. Highly recommend!

Polly said:
"Awesome book! The murder mystery part was really great, and I learned so much about the history of Chicago and 19th century architecture. The history was a little tedious at times, but a good book overall.

"Loved this one! It's a story of survival, and a really interesting history of whaling in colonial America. Exciting, and much easier to read than "mayflower" (philbrick's next book).
