About this product

Product Information

This book's stories and images invite readers to honor and learn from those lost in tragic tsunami events. Each person has a history, an account of things said and done, and preserving these stories helps people to understand the past and make thoughtful decisions for the future. Many people believe that there is good in everything that happens; even tragedies can have positive outcomes. This is certainly true for Hilo, which has been shaped physically, culturally, and economically by the tsunamis of 1946 and 1960. In the waves' wake, lives and livelihoods were lost. Hilo would reel from the catastrophes, but the spirit of resilience would shine through, and Hilo would emerge not unscathed, but not undone. Strength and compassion emerge from the stories of fate in how people responded to one another and how they rebuilt.

    A Tidal Wave of Hilo, HI specific content!

    There was just too much to read when visiting the Tsunamis Museum in Hilo, HI, and they had this book available in the gift store. As we needed to be elsewhere, we neglected to buy it there, and bought it on eBay later. Very specific information about the Tsunamis that caused so much devastation in Hilo from 1946 to as late as 2011. Most of the book is devoted to the 1946 and 1960 Tidal Waves. Probably 60% of the content is devoted to photographs with a number of before/after comparisons. Since it is not a hardcover large format book, it will not be on the coffee table, but it will grace an end table and I’m confident it will be frequently picked up and enjoyed by the curious.
