The Violent Earth
註釋A wave a third of a mile high, men and animals levitated, a lightning ball that shattered a church -- these and many other true incidents are recounted in this book which presents Nature in its most violent moods. The phenomena covered range from wind and hail storms, lightning and floods to the devastation wrought by earthquakes and volcanoes. There is also a chapter on meteoroids -- those visitants from outer space that sometimes plunge through the atmosphere, smashing into the earth with the force of a thousand atom bombs.
