Bravo to the Southern Illinois University Press for reprinting this wonderful historical account of a horrific natural disaster. The pictures alone tell an incredible story of destruction. Interviews with people show the biases of the time, and it is written in melodramatic tones typical of the 1890's. It is hard to read this book without picturing yourself as being a part of the event then, or picturing such an event happening today.    Buy this book now!
