It is the story of what can happen when human arrogance meets nature's last uncontrollable force, based on Cline's own letters, telegrams, and reports, the testimony of scores of survivors, and our latest understanding of the hows and whys of great storms. 541 $d 20081029. 650 7 $a Floods $z Galveston $z Galveston $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Audiobooks. 650 7 $a Audiobooks. $y 1999. 650 7 $a Hurricanes $z Galveston $z Galveston $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Galveston (Texas) $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Galveston (Texas) $v Biography. 700 $a Herrmann, Edward. 700 $a Cline, Isaac Monroe. 941 $a 1 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20150217061423.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2125582CB67511E4914E0686DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
