With an emphasis on understanding the threat, recognizing warning signs, and having an action plan, this series' focus is on reducing fatalities and property damage. Photographs, sidebars, maps, and graphs combine with primary sources and an accessible text to provide a comprehensive introduction to the featured disaster.
