An online book/blog by a Katrina survivor, with journal entries written as it was all happening. The site also includes an excellent preparedness workbook that addresses everything from sheltering in place to being able to evacuate in 60 secnds and still take all the really important stuff with you.
The blog part of it is sobering, because as it was being written, the author didn't know whether his house would still be standing when he returned, and there are plenty of pictures of truly horrific scenes from the aftermath of the hurricane. But he writes with great humor and if the little graphics aren't his own, he went to a lot of trouble to find really appropriate ones.
