Stephen J. Pyne

Between Two Fires is a story of ideas, institutions, and fires. Stephen J. Pyne tells the history of America’s fire revolution, a reaction to the decades-long policy of fire suppression touched off by the Great Fires of 1910. It is the real history of contemporary America’s management of one billion burnable acres. Pyne has once again constructed a history of record that will shape our next century of wildland fire management.
