In the Wake of the Hurricane by Ogley, Bob - 1989

London: Guild, 1989. A Fine unmarked copy with near Fine dustjacket. A rectangular format volume of 139 pages. The wind that blew in from the sea in the early hours of October 16 1987 and changed the face of southern England prompted newspaper editor Bob Ogley to produce an instant book showing the devastation in a large area of West Kent and beyond. In little more than a month In the Wake of the Hurricane sold 25,000 copies and this new book, produced by popular demand, will have wider appeal. It traces the story of one of the the greatest storms ever to hit our shores and describes how those of us in heavily populated, but normally insulated, area of Western Europe now have a greater respect for the forces of nature. 20.
