Wonderful photographs, highly readable text on timely topic
By Thriftbooks.com User, December 14, 2002
For the reader looking for information on the history of wildfire, their cultural impacts, and the state of modern wildfire suppression tactics, this book is a must. Not only is the text highly readable but the photographs should be enlarged and placed in a coffee-table size book. They are absolutely georgous. This is a timely book given the increasing frequency of wildfires in the west and southwest. Scott Thybony is a first rate writer and when his highly readable style is coupled with the photographs in this book it is a must have for any reader remotely interested in the topic.
