A Weekend in September

A Weekend in September is a 1957 book by John Edward Weems. It is about the 1900 Galveston hurricane.

A 1980 reprinting was published by the Texas A&M University Press. In 2005 the university made the book's 10th printing.

Weems had interviewed people who had experienced the events and used other sources from the era.

Dean R. Larson of Purdue University Calumet (now Purdue University Northwest) stated that the imagery is "so alive with detail that this reader needed a self reminder that the book is not fiction".

Ralph A. Wooster of Lamar University stated that the research was "skillful".
