What is Galveston Hurricane 1900 Aftermath and Impact about?

The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 devastated the city, resulting in 8,000 deaths and significant destruction, leading to the establishment of a new commission form of government for efficient rebuilding. To prevent future disasters, the city was raised, a seawall was constructed, and a bridge to the mainland was built. The aftermath shifted development to Houston, which became a major port city, while Galveston transformed into a tourist destination with preserved historical architecture.
