A groundbreaking account of the cataclysmic hurricane of 1938 and its devastating impact on New England's inland forests

The hurricane that pummeled the northeastern United States on September 21, 1938, was New England's most damaging weather event ever. To call it "New England's Katrina" might be to understate its power. Without warning, the storm plowed into Long Island and New England, killing hundreds of people and destroying roads, bridges, dams, and buildings that stood in its path. Not yet spent, the hurricane then raced inland, maintaining high winds into Vermont and New Hampshire and uprooting millions of acres of forest. This book is the first to investigate how the hurricane of '38 transformed New England, bringing about social and ecological changes that can still be observed these many decades later.

The hurricane's impact was erratic--some swaths of forest were destroyed while others nearby remained unscathed; some stricken forests retain their prehurricane character, others have been transformed. Stephen Long explores these contradictions, drawing on survivors' vivid memories of the storm and its aftermath and on his own familiarity with New England's forests, where he discovers clues to the storm's legacies even now. Thirty-Eight is a gripping story of a singularly destructive hurricane. It also provides important and insightful information on how best to prepare for the inevitable next great storm.

Quick and easy to install
This review is for the INFISTAR AC85111 Cabin Air Filter. To be honest, when I saw this product I was a bit perplexed as to whether our car (Honda Odyssey) even had one! I have never replaced a cabin air filter on any car before. The mechanics might have done so during regular service, but I was not aware of it and had to do an internet search to find out where it would even be installed. Just because of my ignorance, I decided to get it and educate myself. My car actually DID have one and installation would have been a quick and easy job if I remembered to take all the heavy stuff (manuals, etc.) out of the glove box. Because I did not do it, it unhooked it on the right and I had quite a bit of trouble realigning it. If it hadn't been for that, installation would have only take a couple of minutes as it was a breeze. The new filter looks like a good quality product and will last a while. Jury is still out for me on the color though. The old filter was white, so it was easy to see the dirt it trapped. This new filter is almost dirt color which would make it harder to see how dirty it is. However, at such an affordable price, I can replace it as often as I want. I asked my mechanic about it and he said he only replaces cabin air filters if the customer requests it or if he notices a funny odor in the car.

Effective Cabin Air Filter – Fresh and Clean Air for My Car
I recently replaced my car’s cabin air filter with the AC85111 activated carbon filter, and I’ve noticed a clear improvement in air quality inside the vehicle. It helps keep the cabin air fresh, especially during daily commutes and long drives. The activated carbon layer does a good job of reducing dust, odors, and outside pollution, making the driving experience more comfortable. I also noticed less smell from traffic fumes and general road dust entering the car. The fit was perfect for my Honda Pilot, and installation was simple without needing any special tools. It is compatible with several Honda and Acura models, which makes it a reliable replacement option. The material feels well-made and sturdy enough for regular use, ensuring consistent airflow while filtering out impurities effectively. Considering its performance and durability, it also offers good value for money. Overall, this is a practical, easy-to-install, and reliable cabin air filter that helps maintain cleaner and fresher air inside the car.

Good fit for our Honda Accord, quality filter
This was the perfect fit for my daughter's Honda Accord. It's a solid, budget‑friendly upgrade that fits perfectly. It only took a few minutes to install. The pleated material feels sturdy, and the activated carbon layer helps cut down on odors and everyday cabin dust.

No more funky smell!
Have had a funky smell for a while in my car. Air fresheners just couldn't quite cover it up. I pulled the old filter out which was reallll caked up with stuff and got the new one in. Not only is the funky smell finally gone, but the HVAC is a lot quieter when on full blast, and it blows the air harder. It fit great, installation was easy, and having the smell gone makes it worth absolutely every penny.
