On Saturday, September 8, 1900, without warning, the citizens of Galveston Island are in for the fight of their lives when the hurricane of the century hits. In a single night of horror, more then 6,000 islanders lose their lives and countless others are left in devastation. Through the experience, Brent finally faces the truth of his own childhood and the stormy relationship he has with his parents. He finds the courage to write the story of his past and discovers a loving God.Thompson, Janice A. is the author of 'Hurricane Of the 1900 Galveston Hurricane', published 2004 under ISBN 9781589190207 and ISBN 1589190203.
