Description

North Carolina’s Hurricane History charts the more than fifty great storms that experience battered the Tar Heel State from the colonial era through Irene in 2011 and Superstorm Sandy in 2012, two of the most costly hurricanes on record. Drawing on news reports, National Weather Service records, and eyewitness descriptions, hurricane historian Jay Barnes emphasizes the significance of learning from this atypical history as North Carolina prepares for the inevitable disastrous storms to come back. Featuring more than 200 photographs, maps, and illustrations, this book offers amazing stories of destruction and survival. Whilst some are humorous and a few tragic, all offer a unique point of view at the state’s unending vulnerability to those storms.
