Features: Over 200,000 people in one city lost their lives in an earthquake, while a nearly equally powerful earthquake in another city claimed only hundreds of casualties. Why? This book narrates, with moving prose, why earthquakes occur on Earth, how many disasters of such inexplicable nature humanity has endured, and how life can survive sudden calamities. Reading it is truly heart-stirring.
