SUMMARY:Mann Gulch\, Norman Maclean\, and Young Men and Fire: Why We Are Still Talking About Them Today" with Stephen Pyne
DESCRIPTION:On August 5\, 1949\, a fire was spotted at Mann Gulch\, near Helena\, Montana. The U.S. Forest Service dispatched a team of 15 smokejumpers\, who were met by a fire guard from a nearby campground. When the fire blew up\, thirteen firefighters were killed\, three escaped. While the Forest Service studied what happened and revised its training and safety measures\, few outside the agency remembered the tragedy. That is not until Norman Maclean published a meditation on it\, Young Men and Fire\, did the event connect with national and cultural interests—and continues to thirty years later. \nJoin fire historian Stephen Pyne and host Jamie Lewis as they explore the fire on its 75th anniversary and how Maclean’s book affected the American fire community. Stephen Pyne is a fire historian\, emeritus professor at Arizona State University\, and the author of The Northern Rockies: A Fire Survey and most recently Five Suns: A Fire History of Mexico. Jamie has written about the fire for the FHS blog and served as an advisor on a documentary film about it. \nRegister: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_h8yxoUkqTeGy9eaQUw7iUw#/registration
