From out of the sky, from under the earth, from far out at sea- disaster comes. We build, invent, and try extraordinary new things - and sometimes we bring disaster on ourelves. Today television and the internet mean that we can watch disasters almost as they happen, and see their terrible results.
From pompeii to the Asian Tsunami, from The great fire of London to Chernobyl, the stories of disaster are frightening, but they have much to tell us. In this book you will find stories of fear, pain, loss and death- nut also of people whose extraordinary bravery and feelinf gor others wi touch your hear.
