Summary "The True Story of Our National Calamity of Flood, Fire and Tornado" by Logan Marshall is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book details the catastrophic natural disasters, including floods and tornadoes, that struck America in March 1913, leading to widespread destruction and suffering across multiple states. It recounts the human experiences of loss, heroism, and community response amidst these tragedies. At the start of the book, the author sets a somber tone by describing the overwhelming devastation caused by the natural disasters, highlighting both the immediate chaos and the aftermath. The opening section vividly depicts scenes of flooded streets in Dayton, Ohio, where entire neighborhoods are submerged, leaving residents trapped and perilously close to danger. The narrative introduces key figures like John H. Patterson, who plays a vital role in organizing rescue efforts, as well as the struggles of ordinary citizens trying to save their loved ones. Marshall captures the sense of fear, despair, and resilience among the victims, as communities band together in sympathy and solidarity to aid those affected by the disasters.
