About this listen

The Great Chicago Fire drew the nation's attention on October 8, 1871 when 300 people died. There was another fire on that day, though, in a little town called Peshtigo, Wisconsin. The Peshtigo Fire was the largest wildfire in US history, yet it was also the "forgotten fire." A firestorm packing 100 mile-an-hour winds destroyed the town in one hour, killing 800 people in the city of Peshtigo alone, and burning 1.2 million acres of old growth forest. This is a fictional account of how actual events unfolded that day, seen through the eyes of a family who will experience the horrors of October 8th just as the actual citizens of Peshtigo did on that terrifying day over a hundred fifty years ago. Also available as a Kindle Vella serialized story. Paperback coming soon! Historical Fiction
