Cover: Code Red

[In The Hindenburg Disaster] Feigenbaum describes the 1937 catastrophe that occurred when the hydrogen-powered airship burst into flames and crashed, killing 36 people. High-quality, historical photographs add drama and perspective. One might argue whether the picture of the partially burned survivor is necessary, but it does make the tragedy seem real. [In The Great Chicago Fire] McHugh discusses the raging fire that spread over the city in 1871, leaving a wide trail of death, destruction, and homelessness. Illustrations are mostly drawings because no photographs exist. Providing insight into the disasters, the probable causes, and the future outcomes, these well-written books stick to the facts and avoid sensationalism. They include a couple of large-print paragraphs per spread, helpful features such as eye-witness quotes, sidebars with additional information, profiles of important people, a glossary, and references to print and online materials. These titles should prove popular.
