Description

The Storm, written by Daniel Defoe, is a pioneering work of journalism and science reporting that recounts a devastating week-long storm that hit London in 1703. The Great Storm of 1703, as it was known, was a catastrophic event that lasted from 24 November to 27 November, causing widespread damage and disruption.

Defoe's account of the storm is a detailed and accurate record of the events, providing a unique insight into the natural disaster and its impact on the city. The book is a significant work of its time, marking a new approach to reporting and storytelling.

Published in 1704, The Storm is a rare and valuable example of early modern journalism, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past.
