Path of Destruction: The Devastation of New Orleans and the Coming Age of Superstorms Author: McQuaid, John; Schleifstein, Mark Publication:New York : Little, Brown and Company, 2006-08-16 Binding: Hardcover Edition: First Edition Condition: Used: Very Good Description: 368 pages; light edge wear to jacket and boards; Katrina was the signal event of the new century, a body blow to the national self-image. Scenes Americans expect to see in far-off, ungovernable countries have now unfolded in the mightiest nation on earth: victims struggling to survive amid depravity and death, an entire city reduced to an empty shell, a diaspora of refugees unseen since the days of the Dust Bowl.Even as rebuilding gets underway, a sense of shock and confusion lingers. Indeed, sensationalism and political finger-pointing have made it nearly impossible to distinguish the truth from the spin. But now, John McQuaid and Mark Schleifstein cut through the confusion to offer a clear explanation for the greatest natural disaster in American history.
