Wildfire: The Culture, Science, and Future of Fire

Wildfire: The Culture, Science, and Future of Fire
by Ferin Davis Anderson (Author) and Stephanie Sammartino McPherson (Author)
@ Amazon | Bookshop

Booktalk: Wildfire is a natural process that takes place worldwide. In dry conditions, a single spark can transform into a megafire that sweeps across the landscape, burning everything in its path. Despite fire’s deadly reputation, ecosystems such as forests and grasslands depend on it to clear out debris and promote new plant growth.

Discover the history of large-scale fire and what its future may look like as you examine how Indigenous people, farmers, and forestry departments have used fire to manage natural resources and how human development and climate change are impacting the frequency and intensity of wildfires. By delving into how fires start and burn, fire suppression and firefighting, and the ecological importance of burns, you can explore people’s long relationship with fire and reflect on fire’s regenerative benefits and destructive capabilities alike.
