About the author

Samuel Henry Prince

Best known for turning the Halifax Explosion into a landmark study of disaster and social change, this Canadian clergyman and sociologist helped shape early thinking about how communities respond to crisis. His work still feels strikingly modern for readers interested in resilience, social psychology, and history.
