With A Furious Sky, Eric Jay Dolin creates a vivid, life-filled account of our encounters with hurricanes, from nameless storms that threaten Columbus’ voyages to the New World to to the devastation in Puerto Rico caused by Hurricane Maria. Forging a tale of shipwrecks and ravaged cities, of heroism and madness, Dolin introduces a rich cast of heroes and transports us into the midst of devastating storms. In the past, nothing was worse than Hurricane Galveston in 1900, which killed at least 6,000 people, the highest toll of any natural disaster in US history.

As it turned out, the hurricanes prevented Spain from expanding its North American holdings beyond Florida in the late 1500s, and they also played an important role in turning the tide of the American Revolution against the colonists. Britain in the final stages of the conflict. As he moves through the centuries, following the rise of the United States despite the chaos caused by hurricanes, Dolin follows the corresponding evolution of hurricane science, from the pivotal discoveries of Benjamin Franklin to breakthroughs were driven by the necessity of World War II and the Cold War.
