The Johnstown Flood

The Johnstown Flood
by David McCullough [974.877 M13j]

I decided to read The Johnstown Flood because I have read all of David McCullough's books. He is a great storyteller. He makes history come alive. -- recommended by Vicki J. - South Branch Library

We listened to this book on CD while on a road trip. It was spellbinding. We had to go for a few drives once we got home so that we could finish the story. Excellent blend of history, adventure, and voice.
