Excerpt from Samuel Winchester’s book:
“Krakatoa: The Day the World Exploded”
“Krakatoa: The Day the World Exploded”
quote:
The British ship Norham Castle was
40 miles
from Krakatoa at the time of the explosion. The ship's captain wrote in his log,
"So violent are the explosions that the ear-drums of over half my crew have been shattered.
My last thoughts are with my dear wife. I am convinced that the Day of Judgement has come."
