In the Wake of the Hurricane

Great Britain: Froglets Publication, 1988. Trade Paperback. October 16, 1987 is a date we shall all remember. it will be talked about by future generations as the time when nature's naked fury hurled itself at southern England and in many areas completely changed the face of the landscape. This book traces the devastation and shows the terrible damage inflicted in an area covering thousnads of square miles. However it is more than a record of desctruction and chaos. it is also a story of resourcefulness and bravery and shows how we picked ourselves up and carried on in the most impossible circumstances. Life now may seem to be normal, but there is nothing normal about our parks, woodlands and gardens which have been nurtured with such loving care through the centuries. They look like battlefields in the aftermath of an artillery bombardment and it is going to take many more months to clear the way so that replaing may begin. From little acorns, giant oaks will grow. As we watch them mature, we shall never forget Friday October 16, 1987 - our date with history.
