47 Miles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781456330033)

On the evening of April 10th 1979 an F4 tornado touched down outside Wichita Falls TX and carved a 47 mile long path of destruction that would become the costliest Tornado in United States History. Neighbors took shelter together while federal and local groups assembled. When it was all over, an 8 mile swath of the city over a mile wide was leveled. These are the stories of those who survived. Some were heroes, some were victims but all persisted in the face of danger. These are the tales that will undoubtedly be passed down to future generations and shape what we all know of that 'Terrible Tuesday.'
