Review # 1 was written on 2011-07-10 00:00:00 Heather Free Our first week in Nebraska, just two years ago last week, we went to Barnes and Noble and I purchased a few books on Nebraska history and travel. This particular one, prepared in the 1930's, has been my downstairs bathroom reading material for a very long time now, completed today during a break from painting outside. The book covers the history, culture, and economy of the state and then provides a series of driving tours with tidbits on the small towns, massacre sites, Oregon Trail gravesites, and more. Fascinating, fun, out-of-the-ordinary and rather dated information that has been a joy to read.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-11-10 00:00:00 RICARDO Lopez Living near Paradise CA... The parallels between the Peshtigo Fire in 1871 and the Camp Fire in & around Paradise in 2018 are hard to miss. The word-images of evacuees caught by fire are evocative, though I'm grateful to be able to say that in 2018 more of us escaped than otherwise. If the Peshtigo paradigm truly was the start of modern firefighting in the wildland/town interface, I'm inspired to read more about it.
