Description: First edition, seventh printing of Erik Larson's Isaac's Storm: A Man, a Time, and the Deadliest Hurricane In History, winner of the Louis J. Battan Author's Award from the American Meteorology Society and immediate predecessor to his National Book Award nominee and best selling The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic and Madness at the Fair that Changed America. With these two books Larson established himself as the premier journalistic nonfiction author with subsequent bestsellers In the Garden of the Beasts: Terror and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin, Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania, and The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz. His most recent work, The Demon of Unrest: A Saga of Hubris, Heartbreak, and Heroism at the Dawn of the Civil War, will be published on April 30, 2024. (Larson's love of long titles is becoming legend!) The book and dust jacket are just shy of Near Fine, the dust jacket having some minor edge wear and the book some bumping to the top and bottom spines. The book is signed on the title page with doodles added by the author to the accompanying picture which he did in occasion. See pictures for details and message with any questions.
