| Book Subtitle | The Eruption Of Mount Pelee, The Worst Volcanic Disaster Of The 20th Century |
| Book Description | On May 8, 1902, on the Caribbean island of Martinique, the volcano Mount Pelee loosed the most terrifying and lethal eruption of the twentieth century. In minutes, it killed 27,000 people and leveled the city of Saint-Pierre. In La Catastrophe, Alwyn Scarth provides a gripping day-by-day and hour-by-hour account of this devastating eruption, based primarily on chilling eyewitness accounts |
| Editorial Review | in this quirky but fascinating volume, volcano expert alwyn scarth unfolds the story with dramatic flair and exacting detail, reconstructing the days, hours and minutes leading up to the eruption and its horrific aftermath. This study of the horror that befell saint-pierre without warning, mercy or escape is well worth pondering.--seattle times |
