Book Reviews of Wind To Shake The World

Book Review: Can't Look Away
Summary: 5 Stars

An absolutely terrifying example of what nature can do to mankind. Well written, and the author makes you feel like you are there, experiencing the horror. You simply cannot look away from what is happening before your very eyes. Some of the stories of what happened to people affected by the hurricane will make you weep, they're so sad. I recommend this book to anyone interested in history or natural disasters.
