Did you ever wonder what it is like to be in largest earthquake unleashed by the Hayward Fault? Historian Richard Schwartz will offer first-hand accounts of people who lived through the Hayward Fault Earthquake of 21 October 1868. Their stories are riveting. Schwartz will show many photos and illustrations to accompany the story of happening in the Bay Area before, during, and after the earthquake. As the USGS predicts that these maximum eruptions occur on the Hayward Fault, on average, every 140 years, this talk is a must-see, must-hear event for anyone who wants to know what may be in store for us at any moment.
