“I love David McCullough. I would recommend any of his books whole heartedly. The parallels between Johnstown and Katrina/New Orleans made this book especially intereting. ”
“What can I say? David McCullough is in my opinion the foremost historical writer for our generation. I read this book in one day and have since devoured all of his other books. In a day and age when natural -and unnatural- disasters are all too common, this book provides keen insight on how people more than a century ago dealt with the complete destruction of their life. ”
