Book Club | “The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire That Saved America” by Timothy Egan

Timothy Egan combines a dramatic story of fire with fascinating profiles of Teddy Roosevelt and Gifford Pinchot as they try to save our forests and wilderness. The Big Burn consumed more than three million western acres in 1910, helping justify the existence of the U.S. Forest Service. Join us for coffee and a great discussion led by docent Helen Huntley.
