Synopsis "Hurricane of Death"
This book is the first-hand account of Myra Brooks surviving with her husband, George Brooks, and her sister-in-law, Ethel Brooks, for two days on the desolate, hurricane-ravaged Mustang Island starting on September 19, 1919. Each survivor had a rope tied around their waist and they held on for dear life on the sturdy salt cedar bushes on the top of the sand hills. The water came higher and higher, and the sand around us dissolved like sugar. They said afterwards a tidal wave 20 feet high came in just before the wind shifted. Then the worst electrical storm I had ever known tore around us and then came daylight . . . Lines from the poem "Hurricane of Death" "Up from the brooding depths of the Caribbean! You brought the hurricane of death" "Then lightening claimed the world of space! And, death returned, advancing near"
