Hurricanes blow off roofs and uproot ancient trees. Earthquakes tear apart Victorian Main Streets. Floods wash away irreplaceable furnishings and artwork. But simple planning steps can make a difference. In this practical guide, the National Trust shows how everyone who cares for our past can prepare for, respond to and recover from the next natural disaster.
