With support from the U.S. Forest Service, Department of the Interior, and Joint Fire Science Program, I have written a fire history of America from 1960 to 2013. The project will result in two books. Between Two Fires: A Fire History of Contemporary America relates the basic narrative. To the Last Smoke assembles anthologies of essays, organized around important fire regions, to highlight particular places, personalities, and practices; at present, five regional reconnaissances are written, with three more planned. Between Two Fires thus serves as the play-by-play record, and To the Last Smoke as the color commentary. The University of Arizona Press will publish Between Two Fires in October, 2015. It will publish up to eight regional surveys shortly thereafter; five are written and currently in press.
