Galveston Texas hurricane of 1900?

How did most die in that hurricane?
What were the long term consequences that resulted because of that hurricane?
How much did it cost to rebuild?

thank you, if you could, site sources other than wikipedia.

Storm surge is what usually kills the most people. A huge tide comes in with the wall of the eye, driven by the winds associated with the wall, and then goes ripping back out as the winds reverse on the back wall of the eye.

I put the words "Galveston Hurricane" into the Y’ Search _____ Web Search box at the top of this page, and got over 600,000 links, including this one:
