"Inspiring stories of courage, resilience and determination in the face of disaster. New Zealanders have endured phenomenal natural and human disasters throughout the ages.
This inspiring book documents some of these key moments in our history and, more importantly, how we responded and grew stronger; what changes/improvements were made as a result. Cyclones, tornadoes, earthquakes, landslides, floods, volcanic eruptions, fires, plane crashes, pandemics and other disasters are just some of the many themes covered in this comprehensive, vibrantly illustrated account."
