Craig Offman’s article primarily focuses on the book by Erik Larson called “Isaac”s Storm” and studies the accuracy of some of its findings using Lew Flincher of the American Meteorologist Society as a view point on the matter. With this Flincher describes a slightly differing view point of aspects of the book, such as the estrangement of the brothers and the classification of the storm. Whereas Larson calls upon the inability of Issac. Flincher, much like Zhericker, states that Isaac used all of the abilities he had with the information he had at the time. Overall the reasoning of this article seems to be focused on the idea that Larson is not infallible in his reasoning of the past and that his writing has both concrete evidence as well as some humanizing fictions, however he also shows that there will always be some differing views on the reasoning for actions in history as he points out the different opinions on the Class of the storm with multiple “professionals” giving different opinions.
