The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire That Saved America by Timothy Egan

5.0

There is also a PBS special about this topic. A great learning experience about President Roosevelt, John Muir, Gifford Pinchot, and Ed Pulaski. Their hard work and heroic actions led to the parks that we enjoy today. Studying About the conditions that led to The Big Burn fire, is sobering for those of us who live in the wildland urban interface. This is the second book that I've read, by Timothy Egan, and both have been mind altering. His books stick with you, for a very long time.
