Summary

Reflecting the dangerous pursuits of an adventure cameraman, this book offers a first-hand look at the extreme weather phenomena that the author has photographed. Events include the recent Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004 and last year's Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, Louisiana. While the pictures present these natural disasters in vivid detail, the authoritative text includes information about volcanic eruptions, categories of storms, and the stories of people who have survived these climatic events.
