On August 29, 2005, the Gulf Coast Region was rocked by one of America's deadliest, most catastrophic events: hurricane Katrina. For one family, it was a lifelong lesson in survival and the beginning of a long journey to return to their home in a storm ravaged city.

THROUGH THE STORM by Robert P. Robertson is a must read! You've read all of the books about hurricane Katrina's devastation by journalists, biographers, and politicians; saw all of the news footage, and heard all of the accounts. Yet not one was written or told by someone who was really there during the storm and the flood, and survived for two weeks after the storm and the flood! The book details in true accuracy how the Robertson family survived and what they did to survive. Amazingly, the mother of the family was seven months pregnant, and had to evacuate with the children. However, hearing something they weren't supposed to hear, the author decided to return to their home, sneaking through three heavily armed checkpoints to get back! . . THROUGH THE STORM  is a true American story.
