520 |a "In Playing Politics with Natural Disaster, Timothy Kneeland describes how the administration of Richard Nixon exploited the Hurricane Agnes flooding for political gain and then eroded a generation of natural disaster legislation that had been steadily moving toward the federalization of United States natural disaster policy. With a strong focus on specific events in New York and Pennsylvania, Kneeland narrates how local, state, and federal authorities responded to the immediate crisis and then managed the long term recovery from Hurricane Agnes which caused billions of dollars in damage from Florida to New York and led to the death of 122 people. Kneeland's book will be the first to consider the Agnes disaster in terms of its multi-state consequences and to explain how the political response to the disaster shaped both state and federal natural disaster policy from that time to the present era"--  |c Provided by publisher
