About this Book
In 1929, a tidal wave (tsunami) devastated the Burin Peninsula on the south coast of Newfoundland. Over forty communities were struck, affecting over eight hundred families. Here is the list of over four thousand people—husbands, wives, and children—from the records of the Burin Relief Committee, and an itemized list of their material losses.
