Earthquake

By Greg Roza

Natural disasters often occur without warning. And sometimes, as is true with earthquakes, they cause enormous devastation. Along with the tragedy, however, there are often remarkable stories of survival: People who - against the odds and despite the circumstances - lived to tell their tales. This title, after defining earthquakes, goes on to relay some of the amazing stories of survivors of the Kashmir Earthquake (2005), San Francisco Earthquake (1906), Great Kanto Earthquake (1923), and Tangshan Earthquake (1976).
