| 520 | 8 | |a In 'Tempest', Liz Skilton considers the history of hurricane naming, why we name storms, and what effect these names have on society.

Taking a Gulf South perspective, the study focuses on key storms that have shaped not only naming history but also understanding of hurricanes in American culture. | |
