A collection of photographs and stories chronicling Galveston's catastrophic hurricane in 1900, its aftermath and the lives of those caught in the storm.

Massive buildings were crushed like egg shells, great timbers were carried through the air as though they were of no weight, and the winds and the waves swept everything before them until their appetite for destruction was satiated and their force spent. From the foreword by Richard Spillane, editor of the Galveston Tribune
