Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Ten years in the making, Gary Rivlin's Katrina is "a gem of a bookwell-reported, deftly written, tightly focused.a starting point for anyone interested in how The City That Care Forgot develops in its second decade of recovery" (St. Louis Post-Dispatch).On August 29, 2005 Hurricane Katrina made landfall in southeast Louisiana.

Katrina tells the stories of New Orleanians of all stripes as they confront the aftermath of one of the great tragedies of our age. This is "one of the must-reads of the season" (The New Orleans Advocate).…
