"This was a great account of a major blizzard that hit Canada and Buffalo, NY on January 28, 1977 and lasted through February 1. This is all first hand accounts of the events that took place from many different people in Canada and the U. S. There are accounts from regular people as well as people who had power and authority to deal with the disaster. There was a out 6 to 7 feet of snow, with drifts as high as 35 feet. Air temperature was around 10 below zero with wind chills as low as 60 degrees below zero. People froze to death in their vehicles, and outside from exposure. There are many great black and white pictures throughout."
