Excerpt from The Passaic Flood of 1903

The Passaic Basin is fairly well supplied with storage facilities, which, under ordinary circumstances, would temper the severity of floods by holding back a large amount of water. In this case no such effect was produced, as the reservoirs, lakes, and ponds on the drain age area were filled, or practically se, at the beginning of the storm, and there was consequently no available space in which to hold back even an appreciable part of the run-otf water. Over some of the dams in the highland region a comparatively small amount of water was being discharged at the beginning of the storm. Therefore, while these storage basins may have hada certain deterring effect upon the rate of flood accumulation, they could not, in the end, assist materially in preventing damages in the lower part of the drainage area.

Its just a table of the river heights over the course of the flood. No pictures or stories. This might appeal to a meteorologist but I doubt it. It must have come from a boring paper written for a class taken towards the author's masters. Save your money, its a waste of even one penny.

It was okay. I thought it would talk about a particular place that was affected by the flood but it covered many places.
