Martinique in 1902, A Deadly River of Lava (Martinica en 1902, Un Río Mortal de Lava)


Listen Later

Have you ever witnessed a volcano eruption? It is one of the most terrifying forces of nature – pillars of thick, black smoke usually accompanied by sudden flashes of lightning; followed by the flowing rivers of lava pouring down its flanks… Now, imagine you were caught just several kilometers away from one, with no hope of escape. This is precisely what happened to a town in Martinique in 1902.

In this episode, we travel to Saint-Pierre, or more precisely to the location of the Mount Pelée volcano, which was a source of great destruction in April of 1902. Find out just exactly what happened, why the town wasn’t evacuated on time, and how a couple of people actually survived miraculously, in the latest episode of the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast!
