The Great Fire of 1910 burned over 3.5 million acres, torching timber stands in Montana, Idaho, eastern Washington, and Canada. Some 87 lives were lost. Big Ed Pulaski, a ranger in the early years of the U.S. Forest Service, led 45 men to safety in an abandoned mine near Wallace, Idaho. But who was Ranger Pulaski? Into the Fire tells the story of how young Ed Pulaski left home at age 15, bound for the silver mines of Idaho. With no money, a rifle and pistol, his father's good wishes, grit and determination, and a willingness to take any job, he worked his way across the country, steadfast in his dreams of finding adventure in the west. Follow Ed's journey as he puts his back and his heart into fulfilling his dreams.
