In the Face of Disaster : True Stories of Canadian Heroism from the Archives of Maclean's - Benedict, Michael

As New; This collection draws from the magazine's archives to present those moments of drama that have become a part of our national fabric. Journalists relate compelling tales of disasters on land, water and in the air. Fires, flu and floods claim their victims: nature erupts, and human error creates havoc; bridges and stock markets collapse - but in these pages you will find as much heroism as horror. The stories of individual survival, of daring rescue and of deep caring are the true test of our nation's response in disaster.
