They ate breakfast, went to work, went shopping and visited with neighbors. The city was a jewel. Thriving. Prosperous. The third largest port in the nation. Before the sun rose again nearly a quarter of them would lose their lives and 90% would be left without roofs to sleep under. Three-quarters of the city was completely demolished. The local authorities were powerless to maintain order. Ghouls looted everything. Some were found with pockets stuffed with gold rings, many still attached to an owner's finger. The National Guard arrived and martial law was declared. Private guns were confiscated. Looters where shot on sight. John Coulter arrived amidst the chaos. Coulter was a historian, biographer and journalist. His aim was to record the facts of what had happened and to publish the survivors' stories, in their own words. From the despicable to the heroic and everything in between, Coulter's coverage of the 1900 Galveston Storm tells us as much about human nature as it does about Mother Nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Coulter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941324150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941324158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Copano Bay Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d","brand":"John Coulter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43937723318527,"sku":"9781941324158","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b032799d-482f-45b6-81dd-5f8ea2924708.jpg?v=1681431647","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-complete-story-of-the-john-coulter-9781941324158","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
