DESCRIPTION:Hear author William Sullivan present on our state's historic n
 atural disasters. .\nhttps://dpl.libnet.info/event/12249371
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Based on his book\, <em>Floods\, Fires\, &
 amp\; Volcanoes: Oregon's Greatest Natural Disasters</em>\, Oregon author 
 William L. Sullivan presents an illustrated lecture about the floods\, ear
 thquakes\, forest fires\, eruptions\, and tsunamis that have hit Oregon du
 ring the past 13\,000 years of human settlement. Although these disasters 
 occur at irregular intervals\, Sullivan shows that they are in fact part o
 f natural cycles. It is not possible to predict these catastrophic events 
 precisely\, but we can prepare for their impact. Which volcano is likely t
 o erupt next? Are we ready for the giant earthquake and tsunami that is co
 ming to western Oregon?&nbsp\; And how will global warming change the natu
 ral cycles behind Oregon's forest fires and floods?</p>\n<p><img src="http

 author of a dozen books about Oregon\, including <em>Hiking Oregon's Histo
 ry</em>\, the popular <em>100 Hikes</em> series\, and <em>Oregon Trips &am
 p\; Trails.</em> His journal of a 1000-mile hike he took across Oregon in 
 1985\, <em>Listening for Coyote</em>\, was chosen by the Oregon Cultural H
 eritage Commission as one of Oregon&rsquo\;s &ldquo\;100 Books\,&rdquo\; t
