On a day that had begun with blue skies and gentle warmth, Portugal's proud capital was struck by a massive earthquake estimated at 8.7 on the Richter scale. An hour later, riverine Lisbon and the Algarve coast were engulfed by a series of tsunamis. Fires raged for six days, completing the destruction of Europe's fourth-largest city. Theologians and philosophers were baffled by this awesome manifestation of the anger of God. How could the presence of such suffering in the world be reconciled with the existence of a beneficent deity? Paice paints a vivid picture of a city and society changed for ever by a day of terror. He describes in thrilling detail the quake itself and its immediate aftermath, but he is interested just as much in its political, economic and cultural consequences. -- Trove"
