With masterful storytelling skill,
Burns follows the punishing path of the
Great Hurricane of
1938, which hit the eastern seaboard, from Long Island to Connecticut and Rhode Island, in a seamless and suspenseful narrative, preserving for posterity the personal stories of survivors and the legend of the storm. On the night of September 21,
