"Beware of floodplains, fault lines, and Hurricane Alley. Watch out for icebergs, sneezes, and toxic molds. Sometimes it is dangerous to open the refrigerator. Sometimes the best action is to head for the hills." From the Chicago fire of 1871 and the 1889 Johnstown Flood to the sinking of the Titanic and Hurricane Katrina, ten stories of catastrophes and their survivors. Chapter notes. Bibliography. Index. Black-and- white illustrations and photographs.
