For the new paper edition, the author has written a new introduction. New material in the final chapter reports on the scientific inquiries into the New Madrid quakes since 1976. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCritical comments on the cloth edition: \"James Penick has put together a well-written account of the quakes and their effects upon people, animals, waterways, and land. Based on the scattered accounts of the times it offers a good insight into the reactions of persons suddenly confronted with the perils of the unknown. The vivid description of the devastation wrought upon the face of the land gives a picture of dramatic change brought about by the upheaval of natural forces. In short, reading Penick's work one is readily caught up in the total violence of the event.\"--\u003ci\u003eAmerican Historical Review \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Penick provides information relevant to present studies of earthquakes in this area.\"--\u003ci\u003eEarthquake Information Bulletin\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Lal Penick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826203442\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826203441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Missouri Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.20w x 0.57d","brand":"James Lal Penick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072831680767,"sku":"9780826203441","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_037c3e6a-5367-4b43-9903-f15cc49147c1.jpg?v=1685444188","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-new-madrid-earthquakes-revised-james-lal-penick-9780826203441","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
