Overview
From the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE to the Galveston hurricane of 1900 to the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, natural disasters have happened throughout recorded history! Death and destruction follow, and survivors are left to pick up the pieces. In this set, readers learn about some of the most devastating disasters to ever happen on Earth, from volcanic eruptions to wildfires and more. Each book opens with an introduction to the kind of disaster, including how and why they happen and how their power is measured.
