For an author that claims that geography is everything, he neglects to get his editors to put a map in the book, so be sure to have a southeastern Louisiana map handy when reading. Intersperses stories of the 5 main governmental "villians" (Bush, Gov. Blanco, FEMA director Mike Brown, Chernoff, Mayor Nagin) with ordinary folk.
