Explores the ways California has approached fire management and what sets it apart from other parts of the US. Stephen J. Pyne writes that what makes California's fire scene unique is how its distinctive biomes have been yoked to a common system, ultimately committed to suppression, and how its fires burn with a character and on a scale commensurate with the state's size and power.
