Ghosts of the Fireground: Echoes of the Great Peshtigo Fire

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Leschak, Peter M. / Leschak, P., PUBLISHER: HarperOne, "On October , a wildfire of staggering immensity transformed the lumbering town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin (population ), into a literal, burning hell. It was the deadliest fire in North American history. At least people died, and the actual number of fatalities is unknown. Eighteen hundred square miles of woods, fields, and settlements were burned. By cruel coincidence, it was the very day and hour of the Great Chicago Fire.... The unlikely simultaneity of the two infernos has rendered Peshtigo unknown to most Americans.April : On the brink of one of the most ferocious fire seasons ever recorded, and faced with the challenge of commanding an elite attack helicopter team, wildland firefighter Peter Leschak discovers Father Pernin's written account of surviving the wildfire that devastated Peshtigo. As he takes us through Father Pernin's dangerous clash with the Great Peshtigo Fire, Leschak recounts his journey from a life preparing for the ministry to a career dedicated to fighting fires. In so doing, he breathes life into one of the most astounding and little-known disasters in American history and captures the sacred and mysterious pull of the fireground. From Father Pernin's struggle with an inferno so hot that not even the cold waters of the Peshtigo River guaranteed safety to the danger of today's frontline battles in America's wildlands, "Ghosts of the Fireground weaves seamlessly between these compelling adventures, offering a breathtaking look at the awesome power of fire and the courageous and noble pursuit that is wildland firefighting.

As the two travel, they encounter sages and tempters, emperors and beggars, each of whom offer lessons for the pupil on his path to Enlightenment. The book's style is poetic, especially in its descriptions of the natural world, and its unstructured style is ideal for browsing. Wherever it opens the reader will find something thought-provoking in the insightful narrative: -- Everything is tasty when it is prepared with respect and eaten with gratitude. -- Each house was crowned by a golden roof. -- The path is in yourself. A book for students of Buddhism and seekers of any kind, The Master is both a source of inspiration and a literary delight.
