Montserrat

Overview

On the tiny Caribbean Island of Montserrat, Earth's most powerful natural phenomenon gradually devasted large areas of the island when their long dormant volcano awoke in the 1990s. Within two years, most of the population had fled their homes more than once, either becoming refuges in the northern part of their island, or leaving Montserrat entirely. Ben will investigate what it was like living in the shadow of a violently explosive volcano as he uncovers unique stories of great heroism and loss.
