When the Rains Came (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In January 1993, nine inches of rain fell on the San Diego/Tijuana region, seven inches more than normal for the month. Most of the rain fell within a two-week period, flooding many parts of the region. When it was over, 66 people in Tijuana had lost their lives.

"When The Rains Came" is an eyewitness account of the disasters told to the author by his brother Claudio Burgin, whose friend Antonio lost his parents, both of whom were torn from his grasp when the first wave burst through the walls of their home.

Furthermore, the natural disaster was exacerbated by a political power struggle between two parties, leading to local politicians refusing assistance from the federal government.
