On September 8, 1900, one of the most destructive hurricane hit Galveston, Texas. No one predicted that the unusual wind and ocean activities would result in a devastating storm which would end up killing over 6,000 people and changing Galveston forever. Not even Isaac Cline, a resident meteorologist for the U.S. Weather Bureau.
"Superb... Larson has made [Isaac] Cline, turn of the century Galveston and the Great Hurricane live again."
