{"product_id":"earthquake-christchurch-new-zealand-22-february-2011","title":"Earthquake (Christchurch, New Zealand: 22 February, 2011)","description":"Just as Christchurch was beginning to recover from the huge impact of the 4 September 2010 earthquake, a massive aftershock delivered an even more deadly and destructive blow to the city. The magnitude 6.3 quake struck at 12.51pm on 22 February 2011, killing more than 180, severely injuring hundreds more and destroying entire swathes of the city. The devastation was unimaginable - collapsed buildings and shopping malls, flooding, liquefaction, buckled roads, crumpled sewers, fractured houses, and people trapped and dying.\u003cbr\u003eThis book tracks the immediateeffects of the quake and its aftermath as well as looking at the science behind the quakes. From Joe Bennett's poignant preface to moving reportage by Chris Moore and Press photographers, plus a DVD with footage from the day itself and the emotional documentary shown at the Memorial Service, this is an extraordinary account of a city dealing heroically with disaster.\nIncludes DVD","brand":"Random House New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Good \/ 70b213ebc42","offer_id":48067951263895,"sku":"9781869796990-GD-000130001","price":6.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/9002\/8951\/files\/20011033482853.jpg?v=1785056537","url":"https:\/\/thriftreads.co.nz\/products\/earthquake-christchurch-new-zealand-22-february-2011","provider":"Thrift Reads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
