AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"'Rising Tide' stands not only as a powerful story of disaster but as an accomplished and important social history, magisterial in its scope and fiercely dedicated to unearthing truth. What the book doesn't do, doesn't intend to do, is to give us much reason to think that humans are ever going to control the river for any length of time (as the floods of 1993 demonstrated once again). The river's power is too great and our dreaming too small..."Barry, John M. is the author of 'Rising Tide The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 and How It Changed America', published 1998 under ISBN 9780684840024 and ISBN 0684840022.
