Very Interesting

Being from Rhode Island I found this account of the 1938 hurricane fascinating and well written. The narrator was excellent as well.

Well worth the listen.

This isn't the type of book that I normally listen to, but it had great reviews, so I took a chance on it. I'm glad that I did, as it turned out to be one that I would listen to, even if I only had ten minutes available.

I will always think of this book during hurricane season

This is not a great read as literature but as a documentary it is spellbinding. I had heard occasional references to this hurricane in the past but never appreciated the horrific impact of this storm. Well worth the read and a cautionary tale about the power of the ocean.

Great story

Tragic story, but interesting as we vacation in Jamestown RI every year. We heard about the book at the beaver tail light house
