"This is a history of wild weather on the Jersey Shore. . . with harrowing eye-witness accounts, " said the trade journal Booklist in a national review. Illustrated with nearly 200 photographs, engravings and maps, this beautifully printed, oversized book is filled with archival reports, news accounts, and interviews with more than 200 people who experienced major storms first-hand. Much of the book is devoted to these vivid stories, with extensive narratives of the devastating 1962 northeaster and the hurricane of 1944. Covering storms from the voyages of Columbus to the last big northeaster of December '92, the book also touches upon the mythic nature of great storms and looks at the environmental implications of coastal living. A must for every Shore resident's library.
