Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tornadoes are not just a part of Texas culture; they are a part of many towns and communities throughout the state. The more than fifteen thousand tornadoes that have touched down somewhere within the boundaries of the Lone Star State have claimed more than eighteen hundred lives since 1880. Some have left behind such destruction that just the mention of them sends shivers up spines: Waco, Wichita Falls, Saragosa, Jarrell. Texas Tornadoes details all tornadoes and outbreaks that killed ten or more, achieved a rare F5 rating, were historically important, or exhibited unusual characteristics. The accounts encompass more than eighty counties and hundreds of communities, both large and small, that endured these monsters of nature from 1854 through 2015.

His appeal to the Governor of Texas for a stay has little chance of success, and Jake is scared. Meanwhile, his brother Pete takes a frightening stand against Jake's conviction. He breaks into an elementary school and holds a class of seven-year-olds hostage with a homemade bomb. Pete demands his brother's release and refuses to negotiate. When the president of the United States urges Governor Grassley not to give in, the governor agrees-until he learns who is one of the hostages. Jake is granted a full pardon and released. He joins Pete, and the two escape, but Pete takes along hostages. Jake's dilemma is whether to try to save the hostages and risk being executed, or allow his brutal brother to have his way with them.
