�The Great Galveston Storm of 1900 came vividly and frighteningly to life as I read the letters from those fortunate few who survived the wind and water.Casey Green and Shelly Kelly have done a marvelous job of research in �Through a Night of Horrors: Voices from the 1900 Galveston Storm�.What was �Isaac�s Storm�, is now Martin�s and Alice�s and Ida� Storm. The book is proof once again that fact can be as readable as fiction.�--Ron Stone, writer/host of �The Eyes of Texas�, "The Great Galveston Storm of 1900 came vividly and frighteningly to life as I read the letters from those fortunate few who survived the wind and water.Casey Green and Shelly Kelly have done a marvelous job of research in "Through a Night of Horrors: Voices from the 1900 Galveston Storm".What was "Isaac's Storm", is now Martin's and Alice's and Ida' Storm.

Synopsis
It had no name and gave no warning, but crept stealthily into the Gulf and then roared ashore, killing six thousand people. Nearly one hundred years after its landfall, the hurricane that struck Galveston Island on September 8, 1900 remains the worst natural disaster in U.S. history. In this work witnesses to this deadly disaster describe, in many never-before-published accounts, their encounters with this monstrous storm. Casey Edward Greene and Shelly Henley Kelly's work with these primary sources represents several years of labor in culling the Rosenberg Library in Galveston's unparalleled collection on the 1900 storm. Some of the survivor accounts included were recorded in the days and months immediately following the disaster; others were put down after many years had passed. Oral history recordings made in the 1960s and 1970s provided further accounts given by survivors as they approached the end of their lives. More than seventy dramatic photographs underscore the catastrophe., Over 100 years after its landfall, the hurricane that struck Galveston Island on September 8, 1900, remains the worst natural disaster America has seen. In this title witnesses describe, in many never-before-published accounts, their encounters with this deadly storm.

Sellers like this one restored my faith on purchasing from EBAY. Item was in perfect condition n packaged very well. Thank you!

Surprise! today, 08/01, the movie arrived well packed. I watched it. Excellent condition and video quality; great price also. Wanted to pay for it (again)so I contacted the seller to find out how. Regretfully, they say they were “unable to retain payment after a refund has been issued”. A real shame. Snail Mail’s fault
