Dear Reader,
If you enjoyed The Perfect Storm or Isaac's Storm, you'll love ROAR OF THE HEAVENS, a nonfiction page-turner about 1969's Hurricane Camille. John Grisham called it "a riveting account of what it was like to live through the most intense hurricane ever to strike the U.S. mainland."
Written like a thrilling novel, the book follows a handful of characters as Camille comes ashore in Mississippi the same summer weekend as Woodstock, obliterating whole towns. Days later and eight hundred miles inland, she triggers one of the heaviest rainfalls ever recorded, killing over 300 people.
In telling this astounding tale, ROAR OF THE HEAVENS also captures a sweet, fleeting moment in American history, discovers stories of heroism and foolishness, and elegantly explains the science of hurricanes.
I'm giving away five free signed books, so just write me at Dhand302@gmail.com.
All the best,
Stefan Bechtel
