Narrated by Richard Dreyfuss, this exceptional program tells a true story of heartbreak, heroism and the courage to survive. In May of 1889, the citizens of Johnstown, Pennsylvania and other towns in the Conemaugh River Valley perished when an upstream dam explodes unleashing a 40-foot wall of water. Eyewitness accounts display the abject terror of this experience as one in every ten citizens dies. With the official death count at 2909, this remains one of the worst disasters in American history.
