Description: "Britain's history overflows with weather disasters. Most of us forget this from one disaster to the next, and we seem as a nation to be increasingly disconnected from what is normal British weather. This allows government and industry to "spin" extreme weather to the benefit of their own political and commercial interests"- DUST JACKET.
