Overview
Deep Water Disaster brings to life the story of the most devastating oil spill in U.S. history, in this immersive nonfiction picture book for fans of David Macaulay.
People use oil and gasoline to power everyday things like cars and airplanes. But where do we get these fossil fuels? They are found deep, deep under the surface of the Earth.
In 2010, on an oil rig called the Deepwater Horizon off the coast of Louisiana, the day started as normal. The over 100-person crew was working as usual when suddenly, disaster struck. Deep underwater, an explosion led to a series of catastrophic events that ended the lives of many of the crew members and created one of the most disastrous man-made oil spills in human history.
Through historical and technical research, and breathtakingly accurate illustrations reminiscent of David Macaulay, artist Taylor Morrison brings to life this harrowing time in history and creates a compelling call to action to prevent a tragedy like this from happening again.
