Opis

Fire in the Forest is a synopsis of the training, fire incidents, photos and individual chapters on fire events occurring in the early 1970's. Most of the writing involves events which occur on the Tonto, Prescott and Angeles National Forests. In addition there are many individual chapters on various regional histories and personal experiences allowing readers to feel and see what it's like to perform as a fire fighter. Many original photos are included adding to the focus of the book. The writing is not about fire fighting in the large cities but about a different world in the distant, rugged and dangerous world of the immense national forests of the Southwestern United States. All writing springs out of the cultural thinking of any time period. This book reflects the early 1970's and was not a time of being politically correct. I wrote looking back nearly fifty years ago with a 1970's viewpoint.
