If one wants to understand just how completely the story of the human past is also the story of fire on earth, there is no better place to start than this small book.\"William Cronon   Here, in one concise book, is the essential story of fire. Noted environmental historian Stephen J. Pyne describes the evolution of fire through prehistoric and historic times down to the present, examining contemporary attitudes from a long-range, informed perspective. Fire: A Brief History surveys the principles behind aboriginal and agricultural fire practices, the characteristics of urban fire, and the relationship between controlled combustion and technology. Pyne describes how fires role in cities, suburbs, exurbs, and wildlands has been shaped by an industrialized, urban way of thinking.   Fire: A Brief History will be of value to readers interested in "]
