The story of Floyd is far from over, and North Carolinians must be prepared to face similar storms in the future, warn Richard Moore and Jay Barnes. They conclude with an assessment of the state's response to Floyd and a discussion of what programs should be initiated, maintained, or strengthened to prepare for future storms.\u003cbr\u003eThrough evocative personal stories, maps, tables, and dozens of striking photographs, \u003ci\u003eFaces from the Flood\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the dramatic impact of Hurricane Floyd. It will serve as a valuable reference for future explorations of North Carolina's greatest disaster.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Moore, Jay Barnes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807855332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807855331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of North Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 7.02w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2004 pg. 41","brand":"Richard Moore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46173239181567,"sku":"9780807855331","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1e2c2c86-cdea-4384-828f-d3e49d01567e.jpg?v=1727180396","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/faces-from-the-flood-richard-moore-9780807855331","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
