Reviews
"Gripping.... A masterful account of how young men are able to face down wildfire, and why they volunteer for such an enterprise in the first place." - David Grazian, Sociological Forum "Along with the risks and sorrow, Desmond also presents the humor and camaraderie of ordinary men performing extraordinary tasks.... A good complement to Norman Maclean's Young Men and Fire. Recommended." - Library Journal"
