Download or read book Thirty Eight written by Stephen Long and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hurricane that pummeled the northeastern United States on September 21, 1938, was New England’s most damaging weather event ever. To call it “New England’s Katrina” might be to understate its power. Without warning, the storm plowed into Long Island and New England, killing hundreds of people and destroying roads, bridges, dams, and buildings that stood in its path. Not yet spent, the hurricane then raced inland, maintaining high winds into Vermont and New Hampshire and uprooting millions of acres of forest. This book is the first to investigate how the hurricane of ’38 transformed New England, bringing about social and ecological changes that can still be observed these many decades later. The hurricane’s impact was erratic—some swaths of forest were destroyed while others nearby remained unscathed; some stricken forests retain their prehurricane character, others have been transformed. Stephen Long explores these contradictions, drawing on survivors’ vivid memories of the storm and its aftermath and on his own familiarity with New England’s forests, where he discovers clues to the storm’s legacies even now. Thirty-Eight is a gripping story of a singularly destructive hurricane. It also provides important and insightful information on how best to prepare for the inevitable next great storm.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hurricane and Flood of September, 1938 It was in the very nature of the disaster that one problem should pyramid upon another. The wind which sent thousands of trees crashing through tele phone lines toppled thousands more across lines which distributed electric power. At the same time, as power was lost, the failing of telephone cir cuits created an excessive drain on precious reserves of current in telephone central office batteries. That was one vicious circle, but not the only one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
