## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pictures tell the story.
*by H***R on August 9, 2012*

Joseph Soares' The 1938 Hurricane Along New England Coast contains about 225 pictures and minimalist text of the September 21, New England Hurricane that swept along the New Jersey shore only to tear through New York's Oyster Bay and Long Island Sound, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts claiming 680 lives, $400 million in property damage, destroyed 4500 homes and damaged 15,000 more. 2605 boats were lost with another 3369 damaged and 26,000 cars were smashed. The storm destroyed a large percentage of the New England apple crop and was credited with changing the essence of New England. The introduction contains some statistics and gives a short description of the character and nature of the storm. The storm's impact comes alive in the photos.The book contains it seems mostly pictures of US Coast Guard Stations, and some building before and after. Some of the most impressive photos are before and after--this is where the book shines. Its thin with just four chapters covering Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, and the final covers Massachussets and New Jersey. I found the pictures of the damaged boats most interesting but there were plenty of damaged homes, businesses, and the afore mentioned coastal stations. I think better organization would benefit the reader, there are enough before and after photos available that a short description of the damage to that state to introduce each chapter would have been helpful, a segment on changing shorelines, or perhaps how the rebuilds went but this book is simply about publishing photographs and the author acknowledges it. He does what he set out to do, not tell the tale in words but in pictures. Its a shame but understandable that on the scene photos during the storm are sparse--people were struggling to survive.This book is not a primer, but better as a supplement to either Everett Allen's 1976 A Wind to Shake the World, or R.A. Scotti's 2003 book Sudden Sea. It is a worthy supplement for either book which will tell the tale of when the wind rose and the sea leapt over the shores and homes.
