8,000 Dead In Galveston, 12,000 Dead In London, 500 Dead On Midwest Plains; Riveting Historical Must-Reads

Update: 2024-07-27

Description

With thanks to small-town librarians across the nation, this podcast looks at three powerful writers and researchers who have allowed deep insight into the horror unleashed by weather phenomena. From the 1900 hurricane that smashed into a port city killing 8,000, to the freakish winter weather system in 1888 that killed 500 people on the Midwest plains, many of them children, to the 12,000 dead people in London’s smog in 1952, these stories will move you and never leave you once the books are finished. Former broadcaster Gregory Humphrey has produced another professional and engaging podcast.
