    I’m reading “Isaac’s Storm” by the same author and it’s terrific. It’s about the Galveston hurricane in 1900 and the man who ran the Weather Service in Galveston. I highly recommend it.

    I also put “Devil in the White City” on hold, but even being out as long as it has, there’s a huge wait for it from the NYPL.

    Oh, I hadn’t heard of that one, Kilroy! I’ve read so much about that hurricane. Think I’ll see if the book is available on Kindle.

    Loved Isaac’s Storm ! Also loved White City and you just gotta read Thunderstruck. It’s about the Dr. Crippen chase across the atlantic when radio signals were in their infancy. Everyone I gave a copy of Thunderstruck to complained that they didn’t get any sleep because they had to stay up and finish the book. Erik Larson is such a wonderful writer.
