Charity

The Heroic and Heartbreaking Story of Charity Hospital in Hurricane Katrina

By: Jim Carrier

Narrated by: Jim Carrier

First went the power. Then came the water, and for five days, the country’s oldest hospital was under siege. The never-before-told story of the heroic doctors, nurses, and patients who fought to survive Hurricane Katrina at Charity Hospital in New Orleans. The story traces a remarkable five-day transformation of an infirm institution, caught in a sea of death and indifference, into an island of care and tenderness.

Liked it all. Very detailed and informative. Also enjoyed knowing the history of CHARITY.Thank you

Captivating, Heartbreaking, REAL!

Outside of New Orleans, few people know the history, and death of Charity. I do wish the author had gone more in depth into the aftermath, the politics which ended Charity.

Chapter 8 repeats 3 times. Annoying.

It's fine except for chapter 8 and the pronunciation of names. I almost stopped after chapter 8

Chapter 8 repeats

Chapter 8 repeats and I wish they talked more about why they never re opened because there are still so many questions
