À propos de cet audio
The nightmare called Hurricane Katrina was the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history. The sheer scale of the destruction, coupled with a widely criticized government response, created a humanitarian crisis and led to a massive, long-term displacement of residents, forever altering the region’s demographic and cultural landscape.
Author/Narrator Melvin Cohea was one of those residents, but not a passive victim. After two and a half days atop his roof, he was blessed with the arrival of a drifting rowboat that he used to rescue many of his neighbors. He used his skills and foresight to organize his neighborhood resources to create a rescue village.
Now he eloquently draws you into his story without using a script, reliving the details of his adventure as if they were just happening. He includes the aftermath of governmental blundering that led to his evacuation to three other states.
This is a story you will remember over the years as global warming increases the probability of future calamities like Hurricane Katrina.
