The JOHNSTOWN FLOOD by David McCullough

Finished Tu 11/17/15

The November selection for the Contemporary Book Club. Last year I suggested that we read one non-fiction and the group agreed.

This is McCullough's first novel from 1968 and he was born in Pittsburg and very familiar with this tragic incident in American history.

I enjoyed the book and I think that most of the members liked it.

Link to the YouTube video that is an expanded version of the film that you would see if you visited The Johnstown Flood Museum. David McCullough is the host of the show.
