The Taichung Earthquake of 1935, the August 7 floods of 1959, 1999’s Chi-chi Earthquake and the 2009 August 8 typhoon disaster are probably the natural disasters that have hit Taiwan in the last 100 years that have caused the most deaths and injuries and are etched deepest in the collective memory of the people. As the first anniversary of last’s year’s August 8 flood disaster approached, I visited the Digital Archives in the hope of finding out how people survived through this and other trying times.
