On 19 April 1997, in one of the most dramatic floods in US history, more than 50,000 people abandoned their homes and businesses in Grand Forks, North Dakota. A nation watched as the heart of downtown, engulfed by a river, burst into flames above the waterline. Like Sebastian Junger's 'The Perfect Storm', this book is a compelling true-life narrative about the confluence of natural forces and human error that shaped one of the greatest natural disasters in US history. Through the powerful stories of memorable individuals the book gives us a new perspective on disaster and community.
