I looked at the table of contents a few weeks aga and I wasn't all that impressed. I decided not to order the book.
An interesting book(although dated, published in the 40's) is Great Storms and Shipwrecks of New England.
Other books:
Historic storms of New England
Early American Winters Volumes 1 and 2
Not New England related but great reads
All Hell Broke Loose...it's about the Armistice Day blizzard of 1940
Such a Cold Sky....it's about the weather of the Michigan Upper Peninsula...
