This is such a good historical novel by the exceptional writer Erik Larson that I loaned it out to a meteorologist and never got it back. Thank-fully, I got another copy thru my wish-list! A great disaster that could have been partially prevented had it not been for the idiocy and pride of the heads of the weather bureau at that time. A bureau in its infancy, just beginning to understand the possibilities of predicting weather.
