Escape From New Orleans: Charmaine Neville's Story of Courage and Survival In Hurricane Katrina

0/5 ( ratings)

As Hurricane Katrina slammed into New Orleans on August 29th 2005, singer, Charmaine Neville, niece of legendary recording artist, Aaron Neville, found herself trapped in the Lower Ninth Ward. As the flood waters rose, she took refuge on the roof of a school. But in the middle of the night, that safe haven became a nightmare when a figure appeared out of the darkness. She managed to wade to safety and began to organize relief efforts, eventually commandeering a city bus to take people to safety. Traumatised by her experiences, and ignored by the American media, she eventually confided her story exclusively to British journalist and author, Simon Worrall. The result is a heart-stopping, eye witness account of one of the worst natural disasters in American history - and one woman's journey from catastrophe to recovery.
