In April 1979, La Soufriere, St. Vincent started to erupt: a large explosive eruption. Vincentians describe their thoughts, feelings and actions as this happened. They also describe what they have been told about the larger fatal eruptions in 1902.

Thank you for this, IWN. I missed it all. Was in church on Good Friday in Montreal. And back then, we did not have the means to have such a comprehensive and orchestrated record.
My great-grandfather (George Edwards) who was a fisherman, lived in Wallilabou in 1902 when La Soufriere erupted. My grandmother told me; he saved lots of people by carrying them in his boat to safety.
