Has obviously focused but still Nola focused
Revisado: 03-20-23
I very much enjoyed this book! But I did want to note that the book is covering a large amount of information so it is clear that the author brings you in with specific topics that are Nola and culturally relevant, and uses them like stepping stones to being you in, one such topic is music. So if your looking for a text book history this may not be for you but if you want to see Nola history with facts and figure but from a human perspective this is a nice dive.

A Tale of Two Cities is one of Charles Dickens's most exciting novels. Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, it tells the story of a family threatened by the terrible events of the past. Doctor Manette was wrongly imprisoned in the Bastille for 18 years without trial by the aristocratic authorities.

Words Whispered in Water is the story of how - against all odds - one woman exposed the culprit in the catastrophic flooding and compelled the news media, and the government, to tell the truth. Words Whispered in Water highlights the importance of exposing the bad behavior of giant corporations and bureaucracies whose unsavory activities affect millions of people, because once bad behavior is exposed, there is noticeably less fraud and better behavior on the part of an organization.

What really happened!
Revisado: 08-27-21
Everyone who thinks they know the story behind what happened in the 2005 New Orleans flood (Hurricane Katrina) must read this book, especially if you are an engineer! This book reveals the truth behind common misconceptions and exposes the failures and apparent coverups facilitated by the US Army Corps of Engineers, after the catastrophic flood in 2005. Levees.org is a group focused on revealing the truth at all costs and this book is a testament to the fighting spirit of Sandy Rosenthal, H.J. Bosworth, Jr. and the whole Levees.org team!
Also I couldn't put the book down and finished it all in one day!

Air Force pilot Captain Carlyle "Smitty" Harris was shot down over Vietnam on April 4, 1965 and taken to the infamous Hoa Lo prison—nicknamed the "Hanoi Hilton." For the next eight years, Smitty and hundreds of other American POWs—including John McCain and George "Bud" Day—suffered torture, solitary confinement, and unimaginable abuse. It was there Smitty covertly taught the Tap Code—an old, long-unused World War II method of communication—to many POWs. In turn, they taught others, and it quickly became a way for POWs to communicate without their captors' knowledge.

Good true story
Revisado: 08-19-20
Good true story, but got I bit too pious at the end, and it felt a bit too precious as a memory not too much of a feel for the personality but that may be just the nature of it being a real account of prisoners of war
