旧金山大地震
1906年4月18日
因地震而引起的火灾，在旧金山市区延烧了三天，而盖的很接近的木造屋及破损的自来水干管，更使得减火工作困难重重；估计死亡人数高达三千多人。
连续几个星期的时间，幸存者睡在帐篷及公园中；为避免不慎烧毁更多的建筑物，他们煮食时，会移至户外。接着，他们忙于重建他们的城市及住家，并且希望不再被毁灭性的地震惊醒。
Fires that started as a result of the quake raged through San Francisco for three days. Closely-built wooden homes and broken water mains made it difficult to fight the fires. More than 3,000 people are estimated to have died.
For a few weeks, survivors slept in tents and parks. They cooked outdoors to avoid the chance that any more buildings would be burned. Then they got busy rebuilding their city and homes and hoped never to be awakened by a devastating earthquake again.
