A gripping narrative about the new reality of wildfire in North America.
In Firestorm, journalist Edward Struzik visits scorched earth from Alaska to Maine, and introduces the scientists, firefighters, and resource managers making the case for a radically different approach to managing wildfire in the 21st century. Wildfires can no longer be treated as unavoidable events because the risk and dangers are becoming too great and too costly. Struzik weaves a heart-pumping narrative of science, economics, politics, and human determination and points to the ways that we, and the wilder inhabitants of the forests around our cities and towns, might yet flourish in an age of growing megafires.
** Includes case example of wildfire from Victoria, February 2009
“Firestorm comes alive when Struzik discusses the work of offbeat scientists, like the man who has been “monitoring the fate of flammulated owls in the Manitou Experimental Forest on the front ranges of the Colorado Rockies since 1981" — from the book review "Are the American West’s Wildfires Inevitable?" in the The New York Times.
