Review of Krakatoa: Volcano of Destruction

In 1883 the volcanic island of krakatoa erupted with the most catastrophic results. this story follows the experiences of a dutch family who witnessed the eruption of krakatoa. It also follows the accounts of a missionary who recorded his accounts of the eruption. People thought it was three, small volcanoes on 1 island but through his research he discovers it is 1 giant volcano about to have a massive eruption on a scale noonoe has ever witnessed. The 4th explosion was the largest noise ever recorded. It was heard 6 thousand miles away in Brisbane,Australia! an incerdible story of survival and horrible tragedy of a Dutch family and amazing heroics and quick wit of a ship captain make this a truly great story. I was just absolutely shocked at the catastrophic effects an eruption so far reaching can inflict. a must see!!
