Knygos aprašymas

Review

[A] diversity and multitude of personal accounts...[provides] a better appreciation of the event as a dynamic experience from which we still have much to learn.-- "School Library Journal"

Listening to The Great Fire narrated by Taylor Mali is like watching a History Channel program with one's eyes closed...Slam poet Mali conveys the terror, rage, and hope reborn experienced by the stunned Chicagoans...[it] will burn in memory long after the recording ends.-- "AudioFile"

Strategically quoting the written accounts of witnesses...[the book] charts the thirty-one-hour spread of the fire and conveys the atmosphere in the streets...Engrossing.-- "Publishers Weekly"


Product Description

The Great Fire of 1871 was one of the most colossal disasters in American history-with damage so profound that few people believed the city of Chicago could ever rise again. By weaving personal accounts of actual survivors together with careful research, Jim Murphy constructs a riveting and dramatic narrative, ultimately revealing how the human spirit triumphed even in a time of deepest despair, and the people of Chicago found the courage and strength to build their city once again.
