Tells the story of one man’s experiences with the earthquake and how he
survived. It gives a lot of good imagery and helps to explain the average person’s
experience and thoughts on Jan 12. It may not be terribly helpful, but I believe
that it will help me to explain some of the feelings that people experienced and it
has some good statistics.
