Description
October 1918 brought dry weather and balmy skies that turned deadly for 453 residents of northeastern Minnesota. Nobody knows the total number of those who died in the aftermath. In this book, Connie Jacobson details the facts, figures and too, too human stories of how those fires devastated Hermantown, Minnesota. As a compassionate journalist, Jacobson brings detailed research, accurate reporting and emotionally searing stories to the page, creating a comprehensive and deeply touching depiction of the havoc and ruin visited upon the close knit, but defenseless, rural Duluth farming community.
