(4) 4-6 A combination of eyewitness stories and excellent, at times chilling, color photographs of tornadoes and the damage they can cause provide a captivating account of recent and historical tornado activity in the United States. The emphasis here is on witnessing the forces of nature and the technology of storm chasing, rather than explaining the underlying science. The accompanying diagrams could be better labeled. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
