Author Jim George and Photo Journalist Jim Anderson describe in words and pictures as most of the 6,000 island residents and visitors fled to the safety of the mainland, the islands grew quiet. Even the birds appeared to be seeking shelter. The silence was broken only by the whisper of the first breezes heralding the hurricane. Gradually the day grew darker. As the storm built in intensity the marvel of satellites and television stunned anxious island residents who had sought protection on the mainland. Along with Sanibel city officials the whole community could only wait and watch as hour by hour it became apparent that their worst fears would become a reality. The outcome of the storm is stunning. 8.5" x 11", 111 pages, Pelican Wing Publications, LLC; 2005, ISBN 0-9768434-0-4.
