Download or read book Isaac s Storm written by Erik Larson and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2000-07-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Devil in the White City, here is the true story of the deadliest hurricane in history. National Bestseller September 8, 1900, began innocently in the seaside town of Galveston, Texas. Even Isaac Cline, resident meteorologist for the U.S. Weather Bureau failed to grasp the true meaning of the strange deep-sea swells and peculiar winds that greeted the city that morning. Mere hours later, Galveston found itself submerged in a monster hurricane that completely destroyed the town and killed over six thousand people in what remains the greatest natural disaster in American history--and Isaac Cline found himself the victim of a devastating personal tragedy. Using Cline's own telegrams, letters, and reports, the testimony of scores of survivors, and our latest understanding of the science of hurricanes, Erik Larson builds a chronicle of one man's heroic struggle and fatal miscalculation in the face of a storm of unimaginable magnitude. Riveting, powerful, and unbearably suspenseful, Isaac's Storm is the story of what can happen when human arrogance meets the great uncontrollable force of nature.

Download or read book THE STORM Unabridged written by Daniel Defoe and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Storm relates the events of a week-long storm that hit London starting on 24 November and reaching its height on the night of 26/27 November 1703. It is known as the Great Storm of 1703, and it was described by Defoe as "The Greatest, the Longest in Duration, the widest in Extent, of all the Tempests and Storms that History gives any Account of since the Beginning of Time." During the work on this piece Defoe used other peoples personal accounts of the storm submitted to him through newspaper add. Defoe also shared his view on the reasons of the great disaster, claiming that the destruction of the sovereign fleet, in which about one-fifth of the navy was lost, was a punishment for their poor performance against the Catholic armies of France and Spain during the first year of the War of the Spanish Succession. The Storm is a pioneering work of journalism and science reporting. It has been called the first substantial work of modern journalism, and it is the first detailed account of a hurricane in Britain. Daniel Defoe (1660-1731), was an English trader, writer, journalist, pamphleteer, and spy, most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe. Defoe is noted for being one of the earliest proponents of the novel, as he helped to popularize the form in Britain with others such as Samuel Richardson, and is among the founders of the English novel. He was a prolific and versatile writer, producing more than five hundred books, pamphlets, and journals on various topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural.

Book excerpt: The Apocalypse is now, and the world is cold and shrouded in darkness. The Four Horsemen have delivered their Dooms, demons and angels make war, and the walking dead stalk the living. Barachai Jaiden Gifter is the unlikely leader of a bastion of hope in the darkness, a citadel called Ha Shomrim. Called Moshiach by some, he struggles to protect the people under his care from the titanic struggle of Heaven and Hell, a battle destined to annihilate the world and all life on it. Fortunately, Barachai is not alone in this fight. His allies include John Henry (a redneck cyborg), Lord Richard (an English secret agent), and Alphonse (his brother-in-law, a slightly reformed infernal wizard). Arrayed against them are minions of Hell with familiar faces. Elvis Presley had sold his soul for fame and fortune; now he has been sent back with the power of storms at his command. Worse, the shade of Adolph Hitler is still on the loose and looking for vengeance against Barachai and his citadel.
