In recent years, they have become larger and deadlier than ever before, forcing us to reckon with how we have failed the land and the incredible cost of that negligence. In ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ต๐ข๐ต๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐ช๐ณ๐ฆ, Kaufmann looks at some of the most devastating fires of modern history and also the many ways that our ecosystem benefits from fire, delving into the history, science, and future of fire ecology. Lushly illustrated with the author's signature art, this beautiful and ultimately hopeful volume points to the many ways that we may coexist with fire and responsibly steward California into a more balanced future.
