The picture on the cover of the book is real.  It was taken near Chalmette, La. for Hurricanne Katrina.  For those who want to "ride out" future storms and storm surges, think twice!  This picture shows the power of these storm surges.  This is about a 20 foot storm surge with 8 to 10 foot seas on top.  It also illustates the dangers faced to our gasoline refineries that are near New Orleans.
