Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Ok even though there are numerous copies for sale it seems no one has read this book. I have, so I will tell you what I think. First off I have read almost all the great fire books from the Circus Fire to Triangle Shirtwaist company and the Chicago theater, Chicago itself, Ou lady of Holy Angels school.
This book does two things. One it flatly tells the story as expected from a bunch of flat writing newspaper writers. There is not much for personal stories or vivid images of what happened inside the burning building. It is not graphic or gripping by any means. But it does tell the story.
Second this is the only fire disaster book that shows the fire department in a good light. It tels a lot of stories of rescue and how the fire department actually had the opportunity to save lives.
Good for the collector but not a great read by any means.
