In the Face of Disaster : True Stories of Canadian Heroism from the Archives of Maclean's - Hardcover
Synopsis
Catastrophes make compelling news. For nearly one hundred years, Maclean's, Canada's national news magazine, has reported on both natural disasters and tragedies caused by human error. Alongside the tales of havoc and mayhem of those extraordinary events, there are moments of great heroism and selflessness amid chaos. This captivating collection draws from the magazine's archives to present those moments of drama that have become part of our national fabric.
Fires, flus and floods claim their victims; bridges and stock markets collapse - but in these pages you will find as much heroism as horror. The stories of individual survival, of daring rescue and of deep caring are the true test of our nation's response to disaster.
