Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes hurricane patterns in the western hemisphere for the years 1772-1842, adding to a collection of earlier studies by the author. Drawing on reports from military posts, ship's logs, and local accounts, the book details 22 tropical storms from 1772 to 1842, each organized by their progress in terms of their duration, the force of their winds and the effects of their passing. The author uses these detailed studies to demonstrate a new method of classifying hurricanes, based on the geometry of their movements rather than only their strength. His work helped expand understanding of the most common hurricane tracks and demonstrated that storms in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean exhibited similar patterns of development and movement. This book is a significant contribution to the history of meteorology and a resource for students of climate and weather patterns.
