| 內容簡介： |
Tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, bird flu, international
terrorism - the world seems to get more dangerous by the day. Or
does it? John Withington''s disturbing yet fascinating new book
describes the worst things that have happened on Earth from the
dawn of man to the present day. Part One chronicles all the major
natural calamities - floods and earthquakes, volcanic eruptions,
hurricanes and typhoons, plague and famine. Part Two describes in
compelling detail the greatest man-made disasters - war and
invasion, air raids, massacres, riots and terrorism, fires and
explosions, shipwrecks, and air and train crashes. John Withington
takes the reader on an epic journey through the annals of the
nastiest things to have afflicted mankind. Out of all this horror,
he has somehow fashioned a compulsively readble and entertaining
book.
